Aziderm 10% Tube Of 15gm Cream
Description
Aziderm 10% Cream is a topical medication used to treat acne, a common skin condition that causes pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. It contains azelaic acid as its active ingredient, which helps reduce bacteria on the skin that cause acne. This medicine also helps reduce swelling, redness, and irritation, giving the skin a clearer, smoother appearance over time.
Your doctor will guide you on how and when to apply Aziderm 10% Cream. It is usually applied once or twice daily to the affected area. Make sure to clean and dry your skin gently before using the cream. Apply a thin, even layer and avoid contact with your eyes, mouth, or broken skin. Always wash your hands before and after applying the medicine.
Some people may notice mild irritation, dryness, or a burning sensation when first using Aziderm 10% Cream. These effects are usually temporary and improve as your skin adjusts to the treatment. If the irritation becomes severe or persistent, consult your doctor for advice on managing it.
To help the medicine work effectively, it is important to maintain good skincare habits. Use a mild, non-comedogenic face wash and avoid oil-based makeup or skincare products that can clog pores. Refrain from picking or squeezing pimples, as this can worsen acne and lead to scarring.
Use Aziderm 10% Cream regularly as prescribed by your doctor, even if you do not see immediate results. Acne treatment takes time, and consistency is key to achieving clearer skin. If you miss a dose, apply it as soon as you remember, but do not apply extra cream to make up for it.
