Overview Acnon 0.025% Gel
Retinoid-based Acnon 0.025% Gel treats severe acne (pimples) in post-pubescent individuals aged 12 and older. Reserved for acne unresponsive to prior treatments, it regulates excessive sebum production. Apply a small amount topically each night, as directed by your physician; dosage and duration are condition-specific. Cleanse and dry the affected skin before applying a thin layer, typically once daily at bedtime. Avoid application to broken skin and contact with mucous membranes (eyes, nose, mouth). Improvement may take weeks; consistent use is crucial. Consult your doctor if no improvement is seen after several weeks. Common, generally mild, side effects include skin irritation (itching, burning, peeling, redness). Inform your doctor if these persist or worsen; dosage reduction may be considered. Serious side effects are uncommon. Increased sun sensitivity is possible; minimize sun exposure, and use sunscreen. Hydration (plenty of water) and moisturization are recommended due to potential dryness. Skin fragility may increase, thus avoid waxing or laser treatments. Due to potential teratogenic effects, inform your doctor if pregnant or planning pregnancy.
