02 / How to use

How to use Aclean Gel

The approved directions are twice daily, morning and evening. However, start with once a day because excessive dryness may occur. If dryness or peeling develops, applications may be reduced to every other day.

  1. Check the application area and precautions

    For external use only. Follow the stated directions and dose. Avoid unaffected skin, eyes, nose, mouth and other mucous membranes

  2. Keep in the original container

    Keep tightly closed at 1–30°C, away from direct sunlight, fire and children. Do not transfer it to another container

When not to use it
Do not use if you are allergic to this medicine or have had such a reaction in the past, or if you have diabetes or poor blood circulation. Do not apply around the eyes, to mucous membranes, or to infected, inflamed, red or irritated areas. Purulent dermatitis and wet, weeping or eroded skin must be treated first, before this medicine is applied.

Consult before use
Consult a doctor or pharmacist if you have a history of allergies to medicines or cosmetics, liver or kidney impairment, or sensitivity or allergy to propylene glycol. People with liver or kidney impairment must not apply it over large areas for prolonged periods. Side effects are more likely when treating large areas.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding
If you are pregnant or may be pregnant, use only when the expected treatment benefit is judged to outweigh the risk. Consult a doctor or pharmacist before use. Transfer into breast milk has been reported; the effect on infants is unknown. Do not apply to the breasts while breastfeeding.

Children, adolescents and accidental exposure
Children must use it under a guardian’s supervision, without large amounts, large application areas or prolonged use. Children and adolescents with chickenpox or influenza need medical advice before use because of the possibility of Reye’s syndrome. If it gets in the eyes, rinse thoroughly with plenty of water and follow a doctor’s advice. Consult a doctor or pharmacist if swallowed accidentally.

When to stop
Stop immediately and consult a doctor or pharmacist if a rash, redness, red patches, itching, dermatitis, skin ulceration or irritation of unaffected skin occurs. Large amounts used over a long period can cause dermatitis or skin ulceration. Stop and seek advice if there is no improvement after several applications. Bring the leaflet if possible.

04 / Before you buy

Before buying or using it

Can I use it with Acnon Cream?

Before applying both to the same area, tell a doctor or pharmacist about your skin condition and the products you use, and ask whether they can be combined. Read the directions and precautions for each medicine as well.

Can I buy a set?

Send the names and quantities of other products you want, such as Acnon Cream or Noscarna Gel. We can check the current combination, price and stock. Buying products as a set does not mean the medicines can be applied together to the same area.

Is it suitable for my skin?

Do not use it if you are allergic to it or have a history of such reactions, diabetes or poor blood circulation. Do not apply to infected, inflamed, red or irritated areas. Tell a doctor or pharmacist about your skin condition, allergies, medical conditions, pregnancy and other products you use. Read the precautions in the How to use section.
