IndiaDIFFERIN OINTMENT 0.1%/15gm is a topical medication formulated to treat acne. It contains adapalene, a retinoid that helps reduce inflammation and promotes skin cell turnover.
DIFFERIN OINTMENT works by modulating skin cell growth and reducing inflammation. Adapalene, its active ingredient, normalizes the differentiation of follicular epithelial cells, leading to decreased formation of acne lesions.
DIFFERIN OINTMENT is suitable for individuals who experience mild to moderate acne. It is recommended for use by adults and adolescents aged 12 years and older. Consult a healthcare provider before use, especially if you have sensitive skin or other skin conditions.
Apply a thin layer of DIFFERIN OINTMENT to the affected areas once daily, preferably in the evening. Cleanse the skin gently before application and ensure the skin is dry. Avoid contact with eyes, lips, and mucous membranes.
Avoid excessive sun exposure and use sunscreen while using DIFFERIN OINTMENT. Do not use other acne treatments concurrently unless advised by a healthcare provider. Discontinue use if you experience severe irritation or an allergic reaction.
Some users may experience mild skin irritation, dryness, or redness during the initial weeks of treatment. These effects usually decrease with continued use. If severe irritation occurs, consult a healthcare provider.
Store DIFFERIN OINTMENT at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of reach of children.
DIFFERIN OINTMENT can be used alongside non-irritating cleansers and moisturizers. Avoid products that contain alcohol, astringents, or other irritants. Consult a healthcare provider for a skincare regimen that complements the use of DIFFERIN OINTMENT.
