Treatment of Acne
Atm-A Gel is used to treat acne, reduce skin blemishes, and thus gives you smoother-looking skin. It reduces swelling, redness around acne and dissolves dead cells that clog your pores. It also reduces excess oil production in the skin and thus helps control acne. Atm-A 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.

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

Atm-A Gel is a combination of two medicines: Azithromycin and Adapalene which prevent and treat acne. Azithromycin is an antibiotic which stops bacterial growth by inhibiting synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Adapalene is a form of vitamin A which prevents accumulation of the sebum (skin’s natural oil), unblocks the pores and allows natural exfoliation of the outer layers of skin.

• You may have to use it for a long time before your acne starts to improve. Be patient and keep using it every day.

• Wash your skin with a mild cleanser and pat it dry before applying Atm-A Gel.

• Apply it as a thin layer onto clean, dry, unbroken skin affected by acne.

• It may cause minor burning, stinging or irritation when applied. Inform your doctor if this does not go away.

• Avoid contact with your eyes, nose or mouth. Rinse it off with water if you accidentally get the cream in these areas.

• Dry skin is a common side effect. Use skin moisturizers and avoid alcohol-based products to avoid dryness.

• Inform your doctor if symptoms do not improve within 2-4 weeks of the treatment.
