Are you Looking to Buy Differin Gel (Adapalene) from PrescriptionPoint.

Differin Gel (adapalene) 

Indications 

Differin Gel is used for treating acne vulgaris. 

Dosage and Administration 

• Apply Differin Gel exactly as prescribed by your doctor. 
• Use a thin layer on the affected area once daily, preferably before bedtime. 
• Cleanse the skin gently with a mild soap or cleanser and pat dry before applying the gel. 
• Start with a small amount (pea-sized) and spread evenly across the affected area. 
• Inform your doctor about any other skin products or medications you are using to avoid potential interactions. 
• Use sunscreen and protective clothing when outdoors, as Differin Gel can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. 
• Do not apply Differin Gel to damaged, broken, or sunburned skin as it can cause irritation. 
• Avoid contact with eyes, lips, and mouth. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. 
• Do not use other acne treatments or products containing alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), glycolic acid, or salicylic acid without consulting your doctor, as these can increase skin irritation. 
• Avoid using excessive amounts of Differin Gel, as this will not improve your acne faster but may increase irritation.
