Product Form Gel Pack Size: 15 g Route: Topical / external use only Prescription Status: Prescription medicine (Rx) How to Use Use only as directed by your physician or dermatologist. Cleanse the affected area gently and pat dry. Apply a thin layer of the gel to the acne-prone area as prescribed. Avoid the eyes, lips, nostrils, cuts, abrasions and other sensitive areas. Wash your hands after application unless the hands are the treatment area. Do not apply more product than prescribed; excessive application can increase irritation without necessarily improving results. Use sunscreen and limit unnecessary sun exposure during treatment. Do not use this product more frequently than prescribed. How it Works Adapalene Adapalene is a topical retinoid. It binds to specific retinoic acid receptors and helps regulate the process of follicular cell differentiation and keratinization. This helps reduce the formation of microcomedones, which are early lesions in acne development. It also has anti-inflammatory activity. Benzoyl Peroxide Benzoyl peroxide breaks down on the skin to produce reactive oxygen species that exert antibacterial activity against Cutibacterium acnes. It also has a keratolytic effect, helping loosen dead skin cells and reduce follicular blockage. Combination Action Using the two ingredients together provides complementary activity against acne through comedone prevention, anti-inflammatory effects and antibacterial action. 3. Medical & Safety Information Safety Advice For external use only. This is an Rx medicine and should be used under medical supervision. Avoid contact with eyes, lips and mucous membranes. Do not apply to broken, sunburned, eczematous or severely irritated skin unless specifically instructed by your doctor. Benzoyl peroxide may cause dryness and irritation, especially when starting treatment. Benzoyl peroxide can bleach hair and coloured fabrics, so allow the gel to dry and take care with clothing, towels and bedding. Limit excessive exposure to sunlight and use appropriate broad-spectrum sunscreen. Pregnancy: Adapalene is generally avoided during pregnancy. If you are pregnant, planning pregnancy or become pregnant while using this medicine, contact your doctor. Breastfeeding: Ask your physician before use and avoid application to areas where the infant could come into contact with the medicine. Alcohol: There is no major direct systemic alcohol interaction expected with topical adapalene/benzoyl peroxide, but avoid alcohol-containing or highly irritating skincare products if they worsen dryness or irritation. Driving: This topical medicine is not expected to impair the ability to drive or operate machinery. Kidney/Liver conditions: Because this is a topical preparation, systemic exposure is generally limited; however, inform your doctor about significant medical conditions and all medicines you use. Quick Tips Apply a thin layer rather than a thick coating. Start skincare with a gentle cleanser and non-comedogenic moisturizer. Use sunscreen every morning. Avoid scrubs, harsh exfoliants and excessive rubbing. Avoid simultaneously introducing multiple strong acne treatments unless your dermatologist recommends them. Give treatment time to work; acne improvement generally requires consistent use rather than excessive application. Benzoyl peroxide can bleach fabrics—use white towels/pillowcases where practical. Do not pick or squeeze acne lesions.
