Acnovate Trio Gel 15gm is predominantly used for the management of acne vulgaris. This combination medicine belongs to the class of topical retinoids and antibacterials. Acne vulgaris, commonly known as acne, affects areas with a high density of sebaceous glands like the face, chest, and back. It involves both inflammatory lesions (papules, pustules, nodules) and non-inflammatory lesions (open and closed comedones). This condition is common among teenagers due to hormonal changes but can persist into adulthood.
✅ Uses
- Managing acne vulgaris.
- Reducing excess sebum production is a key contributor to acne development.
- Decreasing abnormal keratinization and blockage of follicles, which lead to done formation.
- Controlling the proliferation of propionibacterium acnes bacteria, implicated in the inflammation associated with acne.
Benefits of Acnovate Trio Gel 15gm
In Acne
Acnovate-Trio Gel helps treat acne by reducing the production of excessive oil in the skin. This helps keep your pores open and prevent further acne breakouts. It helps reduce redness and swelling around acne and promotes healing. It also helps reduce acne blemishes and gives you a smoother-looking skin. Acnovate-Trio Gel usually takes a few weeks to have a noticeable effect so keep using it even if it appears not to be working. This medicine will help improve your mood and uplift your confidence as acne reduces.
How Acnovate Trio Gel 15gm Works?
Acnovate Trio Gel 15gm contains two active ingredients:
- Adapalene (0.1%): This third-generation topical retinoid binds to specific retinoic acid nuclear receptors in your skin cells and modulates their growth and maturation processes. By doing so, adapalene normalises the growth of skin cells within hair follicles, reducing the formation of acne-causing blockages called microcomedones.
- Benzoyl peroxide (2.5%): As an oxidising agent with antibacterial and exfoliating effects, benzoyl peroxide releases free oxygen radicals which kill acne-causing bacteria in hair follicles by oxidising their proteins. Its exfoliating effect aids in the expulsion of comedones – blocked hair follicles that cause acne – thereby helping to clear your pores.
⚠️ Side Effects
- Skin irritation
