Basic Information On Differin Cream
Differin Cream, used for topical application helps prevent acne by getting into the deep pores of the skin and clearing existing acne as well as preventing new acne from developing. It does so by normalizing the skin pores and reducing the generation of cells that obstruct the pores. Overall, oil production is reduced thereby reducing the chance of development of acne. The Differin Drug also helps reduce black heads.
Precautions/Side Effects For Differin Cream
Differin Cream contains Adapalene. Possible side effects of Differin Cream include mild irritation, redness, drying or peeling of skin. These are generally exhibited in the first few weeks of application and go away after that. However, if these symptoms are more severe or do not reduce over time, it is strongly advised to seek medical help about possible reduction or discontinuation of the use of the cream. The brand or generic Differin should not be used with other products containing sulphur, resorcinol or salicylic acid as these can enhance the side effects.
Initial spurt in acne might also be seen upon application. However, medication should not be discontinued as this is an indication that the drug is in fact working. After application, exposure to sun light or sun lamps should be avoided. Exposure to extreme weather is also not recommended after application of Adapalene. If one must step out in the sun, use of a good sunscreen lotion is a must. There are no definitive studies on the effects of brand or generic Differin Cream on fetuses and hence pregnant women should only use the cream if the benefits outweigh the risks.
