Accare Cream

**Accare Adapalene 0.1% Clindamycin 1% Gel** **PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:** Accare Gel is a topical formulation designed specifically for the treatment of acne vulgaris. This gel combines two active ingredients: adapalene, a topical retinoid, and clindamycin, an antibiotic, working synergistically to target various causes of acne. This formulation helps to reduce acne lesions, promote skin cell turnover, and prevent future breakouts. **COMPOSITION:** Each gram of Accare Gel contains: – **Adapalene** – 0.1% – **Clindamycin** – 1% **MECHANISM OF ACTION:** – **Adapalene**: A retinoid that promotes the turnover of skin cells, reduces comedonal (clogged pores) formation, and has anti-inflammatory properties. – **Clindamycin**: An antibiotic that helps to reduce the presence of acne-causing bacteria (Propionibacterium acnes) and has anti-inflammatory effects, contributing to reduced redness and irritation in acne lesions. **DOSAGE:** – Apply a thin layer of the gel to the affected areas once daily, preferably in the evening. – Clean the skin gently with a mild cleanser before applying the gel. – Avoid excessive application, as more is not necessarily better and can increase the risk of skin irritation. **USES:** – Treatment of moderate acne vulgaris – Reduction of inflammatory lesions (papules and pustules) – Prevention of future acne breakouts **SIDE EFFECTS:** Common side effects may include: – Skin irritation (redness, burning sensation, dryness) – Peeling or flaking of the skin – Itching or discomfort in the treated area – Rarely, allergic reactions **IMPORTANT NOTE:** – Avoid applying on broken or irritated skin. – Limit sun exposure during treatment, as the gel may increase skin sensitivity to sunlight; use sunscreen when outdoors. – Avoid contact with eyes, mouth, and mucous membranes. – Consult with a healthcare provider before using during pregnancy or breastfeeding. **RECOMMENDATION:** – Use only as directed by a healthcare professional. – Discontinue use and consult a doctor if you experience severe irritation or an allergic reaction. – Maintain a gentle skincare routine in conjunction with the treatment to optimize results. – Inform your healthcare provider about any other medications, topical products, or treatments you are using to avoid potential interactions.
