How Adipal Plus Gel works
Adipal Plus Gel is a combination of two medicines: Adapalene and Benzoyl Peroxide, which treats acne (pimples). Adapalene is a form of vitamin A and Benzoyl Peroxide is a keratolytic medicine. Together, they prevent accumulation of the sebum (skin’s natural oil), unblock the pores and allow natural exfoliation of the outer layers of skin. Benzoyl Peroxide additionally penetrates into the skin and kills acne-causing bacteria.
Quick Tips
- Apply it to the affected area once a day at bedtime.
- It makes your skin more sensitive toward sunlight. Apply sunscreen or wear protective clothing while stepping out.
- Avoid getting it in your eyes or mouth. If this happens, rinse with water immediately.
- Do not apply to broken, sunburnt or sensitive areas of skin. Inform your doctor if you notice unusual dryness, redness, and peeling of the skin.
- Be careful when applying Adipal Plus Gel to large areas since it can bleach hair, clothing, and furnishings upon contact.
- Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Brief Description
Indication
Apply a thin film of adapalene and benzoyle peroxide gel to affected areas of the face and/or trunk once daily after washing.
Use a pea-sized amount for each area of the face (e.g., forehead, chin, each cheek).
Avoid the eyes, lips and mucous membranes.
Administration
Adapalene: Increased irritation may occur with medicated or abrasive soaps, products with a pronounced drying effect and those containing alcohol or astringents.
Benzoyl Peroxide: PABA sunscreens may transiently discolour fabric.
Adult Dose
Exposure to sunlight, including sunlamps, should be minimized during the use of adapalene and benzoyle peroxide gel. Patients with high levels of sun exposure and those with inherent sensitivity to sun should exercise particular caution. Use of sunscreen products and protective apparel, (e.g., hat) are recommended when exposure cannot be avoided. Weather extremes, such as wind or cold, may be irritating to patients under treatment with adapalene and benzoyle peroxide gel.
Safety and effectiveness of Adapalene and Benzoyl peroxide gel in pediatric patients under the age of 9 years have not been established.
Renal Dose
Adapalene binds to specific retinoic acid nuclear receptors which normalises the differentiation of follicular epithelial cells resulting in decreased microcomedone formation.
Benzoyl peroxide has mild keratolytic effect and antimicrobial activity which is attributed to its oxidative property. It is active against S.epidermidis and P.acne.
