Medicinal Benefits:

Anaero Gel is composed of two medicines namely: metronidazole and nicotinamide. Anaero Gel is primarily used to treat acne. Metronidazole kills parasites and anaerobic bacteria that are responsible for causing infections. It works by damaging their DNA. On the other hand, nicotinamide is a synthetic form of Vitamin B3, that stimulates ceramide (fats found on the uppermost layer of the skin) synthesis and improves the epidermal permeability barrier functions, making skin look supple and soft. This combination of Anaero Gel is thus efficient for treating acne.
