Definitions

  • Tinea versicolor is a very common skin condition, especially in sub tropical regions.
  • Tinea versicolor is caused by the yeast pityrosporon orbiculare. People who have tinea versicolor are genetically predisposed to developing a rash when this germ is present on the skin. When the yeast grows on untanned shin, the rash is pink to brown. When the yeast grows on tanned skin, the rash looks white because the yeast blocks out the sunlight and the skin where the yeast is growing does not tan. When growing on Asian or African-American skin, the rash can look darker or lighter than the surrounding skin depending on the patient. Conventional treatments of tinea versicolor are commonly ineffective. Oral ketaconazole may be prescribed in doses of 200 g daily for 2 to 4 weeks.
  • Selsun Shampoo sodium sulfide
  • Selsun Shampoo is applied to the affected areas before bed and washed off the next morning. This procedure is repeated for several days.
  • Some treatments make use of Lamasil (terbinafine hydrochloride) as a pill or as a topical solution. As a topical solution, Lamasil must be applied several times per day for several weeks and even then may be an ineffective treatment.
  • the use of oral medication is undesired as well, because the oral medications conventionally prescribed for these skin disorders have side effects and do not offer a permanent solution to the problem. Needs exist for a safe and efficient treatment of skin irritations such as tinea versicolor and sebhorrheic keratosis.
  • the present invention is an effective alternative to conventional treatments of tinea versicolor.
  • the present skin cream may be used to treat skin conditions including, but not limited to, tinea versicolor and sebhorrheic keratosis.
  • the skin cream preferably requires one application, unless the condition is severe, to cure the condition.
  • conventional treatments require daily and multi-daily regimens for days or months making them expensive and ineffective if a strict regimen is not followed.
  • the present invention uses sublimed sulfur in a greater percentage than is currently used in any conventional treatment.
  • Conventional treatments expressly avoid excessive sulfur content and advocate minimal amounts of sulfur to be used in the creams and lotions.
  • the skin cream mixture or composition is topically applied to the irritated skin and is generally effective in treating the skin disorder after one application.
  • the cream may generally be applied after the subject showers and before bedtime. The cream is applied to all affected areas. Upon waking, the subject showers to remove any excess residual cream.
  • the present invention when applied topically, is effective in treating many different skin disorders, but in particular is significantly effective in treating tinea versicolor (sunspots) and seborrheic keratoses.
  • the present invention includes a composition having a vehicle or carrier and sulfur.
  • the mixture or composition comprises approximately equal parts of the carrier vehicle and sulfur in the absence of water.
  • the carrier vehicle includes, but is not limited to, Vaseline, petroleum jelly, or lard or any similar component or combinations thereof, with the same overall end effect.
  • the important component is the sulfur in the composition.
  • the sulfur is combined with the carrier, such as Vaseline, in a ratio in which the sulfur is greater than the carrier.
  • the preferred skin cream is applied directly to the skin to cure skin irritations, dermatitis, and diseases such as, but not limited to, tinea versicolor (sunspots) and seborrheic keratoses.
  • the skin cream may be in any form suitable for topical application such as, but not limited to, gels, creams, lotions, ointments, powders, pastes, sprays or the like.
  • a preferred method of treating skin conditions includes preparing the composition, preferably as a non-aqueous topical application composition by mixing sulfur and a carrier vehicle, and applying the topical composition to areas of interest on the skin for treating skin conditions.
  • the sulfur and the carrier vehicle are mixed together, such that the percent by weight of sulfur is greater than the percent by weight of the carrier vehicle.
  • the sulfur may be in the form of sublimed sulfur and the carrier vehicle may include, but is not limited to, Vaseline, lard, petroleum jelly, etc.
  • the composition may be prepared for use as a topical application and may be in any suitable form such as, but not limited to, lotions, creams, ointments, powders, gels, pastes, sprays, and combinations thereof.
  • lotions, creams, ointments, powders, gels, pastes, sprays, and combinations thereof The following exemplify various compositions of the inventive skin cream:

Abstract

L'invention concerne une composition destinée à traiter des conditions cutanées comprenant du soufre combiné avec un excipient tel que de la vaseline, du pétrolatum ou du saindoux permettant d'obtenir une crème pour l'épiderme efficace dans le traitement de conditions cutanées, telles que le pityriasis versicolor, la kératose séborrhéïque et d'autres sortes de dermatoses. La crème pour l'épiderme requiert généralement une seule application à moins que la condition soit grave, ce qui évite les schémas posologiques coûteux journaliers et multi-journaliers.
