Introduction
INTRODUCTION ABOUT NOACNE A GELNOACNE A GEL is used in the management of acne (pimple). It contains a combination of Adapalene and Clindamycin, which belongs to the group of medicines called topical retinoids and lincomycin antibiotics. Adapalene is a form of vitamin A that acts as an antiacne agent by binding directly to the receptor of the skin, which increases the rate of cell turnover (cell regeneration) and decreases oil secretion, preventing clogging of the hair follicles and pores and also decreasing swelling and inflammation. Clindamycin works by binding to the ribosomal unit of the bacteria and disrupting the production of the protein essential for its survival. Before recommending NOACNE A GEL, your doctor may advise you to have tests to understand your existing condition in order to plan effective treatment methods. Stay well hydrated and protect your skin from exposure to sunlight or UV light. Do not apply NOACNE A GEL if you are allergic to adapalene or clindamycin, have a disorder of the digestive system (colitis), a disorder of the immune system, or have bruises, cuts, or burns on the skin.
