Biacna Topical Gel Information:
Biacna (generic name: Clindamycin Phosphate/Tretinoin) is a topical drug which is prescribed for the treatment of acne vulgaris. It is used in more extreme acne cases, and is usually only prescribed if other medications have failed. The active ingredients in Biacna are Clindamycin Phosphate and Tertinoin. Clindamycin Phosphate is an antibiotic. It works by helping to fight bacteria in the body that cause acne. Tretinoin is a type of vitamin A, and it works by reducing the amount of oils released by oil glands in adults and children over the age of 12. Biacna is very effective in combating acne, and patients generally see most of the acne cleared within 6 months of treatment. Acne occurs when the pores in the skin become clogged with natural oils and bacteria, but is also sometimes caused by a hormone imbalance which is responsible for causing the oil glands to produce too much oil. Biacna reduces the amount of oil being produced and therefore less clogging occurs, and the antibiotics help to kill off the bad bacteria. When pores are clogged, bacteria get stuck in the pores which can cause flare ups and redness of the skin.
Biacna Topical Gel Side Effects:
As with any drug, there may be side effects from taking Biacna including mild itching, stinging, dryness of treated skin, temporary lightening or darkening of the skin, stuffy nose, sore throat and cough.
