Benoquin Cream contains Monobenzone, a topical depigmenting agent that reduces melanin production in treated skin. Unlike ordinary skin-lightening products, monobenzone is intended for a specific medical purpose and can cause permanent loss of pigmentation.

It may be prescribed for people with extensive vitiligo when depigmentation of remaining normally pigmented skin is considered appropriate. Its effects can be prolonged or permanent and may not be uniform across all treated areas.

Because monobenzone can cause significant and irreversible changes in skin pigmentation, it should only be used under the direction and monitoring of a qualified dermatologist or healthcare professional.
