How it works
Acnedap Plus Gel is a combination of two medicines: Dapsone and Adapalene which treat acne (pimples). Dapsone is an antibiotic which stops the bacteria from producing folic acid, a nutrient required for bacterial multiplication. Adapalene is a form of vitamin A which prevents accumulation of the sebum (skin's natural oil), unblocks the pores, and allows natural exfoliation of the outer layers of skin.
