Product information "Dimestil® 1 mg/g gel"
Dimestil® 1 mg/g Gel is an over-the-counter medicine containing the active ingredient dimetindene maleate – an antihistamine used to relieve skin allergies and itching (pruritus) caused by various factors.
Dimestil Gel reduces itching by blocking the action of histamine in the body. Histamine
is a substance released by the body during allergic reactions. As Dimestil Gel is easily
absorbed by the skin, it relieves itching and skin irritation within a few minutes. Dimestil
Gel also has a local anaesthetic effect.
Dimestil Gel is used in adults, adolescents and children from 1 month of age for the
short-term relief of itching associated with skin conditions such as rashes and hives
(urticaria), as well as for insect bites, sunburn and superficial first-degree
skin burns (redness of the skin).
Dimestil Gel should be used under medical supervision in children aged between 1 month and 2 years.
If you do not feel better after 3 days, or if your condition worsens, consult your doctor.

Gel
Directions for use
- Dimestil Gel can be applied thinly to the affected and itchy areas of skin up to 3 times a day in adults, adolescents and children.
- Use in children: In infants and young children, avoid applying the gel over large areas, particularly on broken or inflamed skin. Dimestil Gel must not be used in children younger than 1 month, particularly in premature babies (see section ‘Dimestil Gel must not be used’). Dimestil Gel must be used under medical supervision in children aged between 1 month and 2 years.
- Method of administration: Dimestil Gel is a medicinal product for topical application. It is applied to intact skin (without wounds). Do not apply an airtight dressing (occlusive dressing). Do not apply to large areas of skin, or to broken skin or mucous membranes. Apply a small amount to the area to be treated. Then massage the area gently with your hand to help the medicine penetrate the skin.
- Duration of use: If you do not feel any better, or if your condition worsens, after 3 days, consult your doctor. The maximum duration of treatment without consulting a doctor is 7 days.
