Haelan is a medication containing the active ingredient aminolevulinic acid, which is used to treat certain skin conditions like actinic keratosis, a type of skin lesion caused by sun exposure. Haelan works by making the affected skin more sensitive to light, allowing targeted destruction of abnormal cells when exposed to a special light source. This treatment is suitable for individuals with actinic keratosis who need localized therapy for their skin condition.
About Haelan
Dosage and usage
For optimal results, apply a thin layer of Haelan gel to the affected skin areas once a day as directed by your healthcare provider. Do not exceed the recommended dosage or frequency of application. It is important to follow your healthcare provider's instructions carefully to ensure effective treatment. If you experience any unusual skin reactions or severe discomfort, discontinue use and consult your healthcare provider promptly.
What Haelan contains
Each gram of Haelan gel contains 78 mg of aminolevulinic acid hydrochloride as the active ingredient. The gel also includes excipients such as carbomer 940, disodium edetate, propylene glycol, and trometamol, which serve as solvents and stabilizers to ensure the effectiveness of the medication.
Side effects
Common side effects of Haelan may include mild skin irritation, redness, or a burning sensation at the application site. However, some individuals may experience more serious side effects such as severe pain, blistering, or swelling. If you develop symptoms of an allergic reaction like rash, itching, or difficulty breathing, seek immediate medical attention. In rare cases, prolonged exposure to light after applying Haelan may cause severe skin reactions.
Precautions
Do not use Haelan if you are allergic to aminolevulinic acid or any other ingredients in the gel. Avoid applying the gel to open wounds, mucous membranes, or areas close to your eyes. If you have a history of certain skin conditions or are taking photosensitizing medications, consult your healthcare provider before using Haelan to prevent adverse reactions. Keep Haelan out of reach of children and do not use it during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless advised by a healthcare professional. If you have a history of certain heart conditions or are on blood thinners, discuss the use of Haelan with your healthcare provider to ensure safe and effective treatment.

I am so grateful to Doctoronline.co.uk and I can’t express my appreciation enough, as they were there when I couldn’t get an appointment with my own NHS GP here in London.They are absolutely amazing and they have taken away the stress and anxiety that I felt when I needed a GP appointment and the thought of going through the whole process and worrying about missing a telephone call from my GP practice because I was working and knowing they wouldn’t call back .
Excellent service.

Very efficient
Very efficient. The website order form was simple and easy to follow. I couldn't get a doctor's appointment for a medication I have previously been prescribed so I opted to buy from this company instead. The price was reasonable and the medication worked perfectly and quickly and eradicated the problem, I'm back to good health again. It arrived quickly. I wouldn't hesitate to use this company again if necessary when I can't get a doctor's appointment.
