Suwega is made from three ingredients: Dinisuru medicinal oil, sulphur and perfume. It is a preparation for applying to the skin.

Each box has a printed label with the manufacture date, expiry date and batch number, and the text on the box is in Sinhala, Tamil and English. Suwega is offered as a traditional preparation, not as a medicine.
