Auriderm® vanishing gel helps to improve the appearance of chronic purpura.

  • Ideal for older patients suffering from senile purpura
  • Safe for patients on blood thinners
  • Clears most cases in 6 – 8 weeks if no new injury has occurred
  • Soothing and non-irritating; can be used continuously to prevent recurrence
  • Available in a 50 gram tube for long term use

Because chronic purpura is typically recurring, a lower concentration of Vitamin K Oxide the larger size makes it ideal for this patient population.

Directions: After cleansing the skin apply Auriderm vanishing gel liberally to affected areas twice daily, morning and evening.

Cautions: For external use only. Do not apply to wounds or broken skin. Avoid contact with the eyes and mucous membranes. Keep out of reach of children. If swallowed get medical help or contact a poison control center immediately.
