Aknemycin Plus is indicated for the treatment of all forms of acne, both non-inflammatory forms with comedones and inflammatory forms with papules and pustules particularly those associated with a very oily skin.
To be applied to the affected areas once or twice daily. Treatment should continue for 9-12 weeks according to the condition of the skin. It should be noted that therapeutic improvement may not be observed for several weeks after starting treatment.
Consistent application makes a significant contribution to the success of the therapy.
Excess application of Aknemycin Plus should be avoided since it may result in marked erythema, drying and discomfort of the treated areas.
The dosage is the same for all ages.
For application to the skin.
The applicator allows direct administration to the skin. The patient should press the top of the screw cap on the foam pad before each use and should feel a ‘click’ which indicates that the applicator will close again automatically.
Aknemycin Plus is for topical use only. Overdosage will not occur since the amount of erythromycin and tretinoin applied is too small to induce systemic toxicity. If the product is accidentally taken orally, unless the amount is small, gastric lavage should be performed as soon as possible.
