Deriva Cms Tube Of 15gm Gel
Medical Description
Deriva-CMS gel is used for the treatment and management of acne. Deriva-CMS gel contains two medicines, Clindamycin and Adapalene. Clindamycin is an antibiotic, and Adapalene is a medicine derived from vitamin A. Deriva-CMS gel inhibits the growth of bacteria causing pimples, reduces swelling and inhibits the formation of blemishes due to the accumulation of oil and dirt. Avoid excessive use of makeup and other products on your skin when using this gel. Avoid using it if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Do not pop acne, as that leads to bacteria and pus spreading on the skin, which can lead to the spread of acne and acne scar.
