About Adaqueen 0.1% Gel
Adaqueen 0.1% Gel is used to treat acne (pimples) in patients 12 years or older. Acne is a common skin condition and occurs when hair follicles are blocked with dead skin cells and oil. The acne-causing bacteria feed on sebum (natural oil produced by the skin), leading to redness and swelling.
Adaqueen 0.1% Gel contains Adapalene, which works by loosening the cells on the skin’s surface and unblocking pores by reducing oil production. Thus, it decreases pimples, whiteheads, and blackheads.
Use Adaqueen 0.1% Gel as prescribed. You may experience dry skin, irritation, redness, or a burning sensation of the skin in some cases. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention. However, talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
If you are known to be allergic to Adaqueen 0.1% Gel or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please inform your doctor before taking Adaqueen 0.1% Gel. If you have eczema (itchy, swollen, rough, and cracked skin), skin cancer or sunburn, please inform your physician before taking Adaqueen 0.1% Gel.
