Prescription status: Confirm local requirements

Eflora is listed as an eflornithine 13.9% cream for managing unwanted facial hair. Clinical information below draws on labeling for the reference eflornithine product Vaniqa; product-specific equivalence, ingredients and instructions must be confirmed from the manufacturer.

What is eflornithine used for?

Eflornithine reduces the rate of unwanted facial-hair growth in women. It is not a depilatory and does not treat the underlying cause of increased hair growth, such as an endocrine condition.

How does it work?

Eflornithine inhibits ornithine decarboxylase, an enzyme involved in hair follicle activity. Visible results generally require regular use and may take several weeks.

Application and skin care

Reference labeling describes a thin layer to the affected facial and under-chin areas twice daily at least eight hours apart; users should avoid washing the area for four hours. The actual supplied product’s instructions take priority. Do not use near eyes, on broken skin, or as a substitute for hair-removal techniques.

Possible side effects and precautions

Facial irritation, temporary stinging, burning, acne-like bumps, rash and folliculitis may occur. Stop and seek help for suspected serious allergy. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, unusual sudden facial hair growth and associated hormonal symptoms warrant medical advice.

Related skin-care information

Explore the Skin Care catalogue and tretinoin gel information for other skin concerns; these are not treatments for unwanted facial hair and should not be substituted.
