Introduction
Minoz-BPO Gel is a combination of Adapalene and Benzoyl Peroxide, used to treat acne. Adapalene, a form of vitamin A, and Benzoyl Peroxide, a keratolytic medicine, work together to prevent sebum accumulation, unblock pores, and allow natural exfoliation of the skin. Benzoyl Peroxide also kills acne-causing bacteria. While effective, it may cause skin sensitivity to sunlight, dryness, redness, and peeling. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.
Directions for Use
This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Clean and dry the affected area and apply the gel. Wash your hands after applying, unless hands are the affected area.
How it works
Minoz-BPO Gel combines Adapalene and Benzoyl Peroxide to treat acne. Adapalene prevents sebum accumulation and unblocks pores, while Benzoyl Peroxide kills acne-causing bacteria and allows natural exfoliation of the skin.
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 Minoz-BPO 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.
