How it works
Cutiklin B3 Gel is a combination of two medicines: Clindamycin and Nicotinamide. Clindamycin is an antibiotic which works by penetrating into the skin and killing acne-causing bacteria. Nicotinamide is a form of vitamin B. It exerts anti-inflammatory effects when applied to the skin and reduces swelling, redness, and tenderness associated with acne.
Quick Tips
May take several weeks to show its action. Keep using it as suggested by your doctor. Wash your skin with a mild cleanser and pat it dry before applying Cutiklin B3 Gel. Apply it as a thin layer onto clean, dry, unbroken skin affected by acne. It may cause minor burning, stinging, or irritation when applied. Inform your doctor if this does not go away. Avoid contact with your eyes, nose, or mouth. Rinse it off with water if you accidentally get the cream in these areas. It makes your skin more sensitive toward sunlight. Wear protective clothing or use sunscreen while stepping out.
