Acne-SM Gel 20g Tube

Acne-SM Gel is a combination medication belonging to the lincomycin class of antibiotics, primarily used to treat inflamed acne. It works by reducing excessive sebum production and minimizing inflammation associated with acne.

• Clindamycin: A lincomycin antibiotic that penetrates the skin to kill acne-causing bacteria (Propionibacterium acnes), preventing the spread of infection.
• Nicotinamide (Vitamin B3): Exerts anti-inflammatory effects, helping to reduce redness, swelling, and tenderness caused by acne. It also helps prevent pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads.

• External Use Only: Apply a sufficient amount to cover the affected area.
• Application Steps:
  1. Wash your hands and clean the affected area before applying.
  2. Gently apply a thin layer to the affected area.
  3. Wash your hands after application.
• If it accidentally comes into contact with the eyes, nose, or mouth, rinse immediately with water.

Common side effects, which usually resolve over time, include:

• Irritation or dryness.
• Peeling or redness of the skin.
• Burning sensation at the application site.

If side effects persist or worsen, consult your doctor. To minimize dryness or irritation, consider using a skin moisturizer and drinking plenty of water.

• Do not discontinue use without your doctor’s advice.
• Inform your doctor if you:
  • Are pregnant or breastfeeding?
  • Have allergies to any components of the medication.
• Avoid:
  • Touching, picking, or scratching the affected area.
  • Prolonged sun exposure; use sunscreen when outdoors.
  • Using cosmetic products or undergoing cosmetic procedures in the affected area without medical advice.

• Acne-SM Gel is effective in reducing acne and preventing new breakouts.
• For best results, follow your doctor’s instructions, maintain a proper skincare routine, and avoid factors that worsen acne (e.g., stress, poor hygiene, or certain dietary habits).
• Seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe or unusual side effects.

Always consult your doctor or dermatologist for personalized advice and treatment options.
