Clinical Pharmacology

Topical application of hydroquinone produces a reversible depigmentation of the skin by

inhibition of the enzymatic oxidation of 3, 4 - dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) and

suppression of other melanocyte metabolic processes. Exposure to sunlight or ultraviolet light

will cause repigmentation of the bleached areas, which may be prevented by the use of

sunblocking agents or sunscreen agents contained in the Obagi - C Rx System sun Shield Matte

Broad Spectrum SPF 50.
