To help bring a treatment option to people afflicted with common skin disorders including seborrheic dermatitis (SD), Mission Pharmacal Company has unveiled Ovace Plus Lotion (sodium sulfacetamide 9.8%). Ovace Plus Lotion joins Ovace Plus Wash (sodium sulfacetamide 10%) Cleansing Gel and Ovace Plus Shampoo (sodium sulfacetamide 10%) formulated with the proven action of sodium sulfacetamide for SD, seborrhea sicca (dandruff), and infections of the skin caused by sulfonamide-susceptible bacteria. According to the company, Ovace products help manage flares and control the symptoms of SD and dandruff. "Ovace Plus Lotion is a new formulation to help manage the itching and flaking often associated with SD and dandruff," says Rusty Nolen, Dermatology Marketing Director, Mission Pharmacal. "In addition, the lotion formulation is designed to cover larger affected areas of the body."

Ovace products are free of steroids and sulfurs. These features make them suitable for this chronic condition and give physicians more flexibility in treating patients who are allergic or sensitive to sulfur. In addition, Ovace products provide physicians and their patients with the added assurance of being manufactured in the U.S. using high-quality raw ingredients in compliance with the highest manufacturing standards.
