  4. Health Queries for Isac-20 Capsule 10's

  5. I have had acne vulgaris and acne marks on my face for many years. I read that salicylic acid peels help with acne marks, but the treatment is too expensive for me as a student. I am currently taking isotretinoin. Can I use SESDERMA Azelac lotion as a cheaper option to reduce acne marks, and is it safe?

Acne marks often take time to fade, even after the acne is controlled. While lotions containing azelaic acid may help reduce pigmentation and improve skin texture, your skin may be more sensitive because you are taking isotretinoin. Using additional active products without guidance may cause irritation. Consult your doctor before using any new lotion as part of your treatment.
