An indication for Acnatac is the treatment of acne vulgaris with blackheads, papules and pustules in patients 12 years of age or older.
Please remember that the drug is available with a prescription, so it should be used according to its indications.
The drug contains clindamycin, which is an antibiotic, and tretinoin - a derivative of vitamin A. Vitamin A and its derivatives are a common ingredient in preparations designed to reduce the effects of skin aging. However, the use of antibiotics without a clear need can contribute to the development of resistance or excessive growth of insensitive bacteria or fungi on the skin. In addition, cross-resistance to other antibiotics such as lincomycin or erythromycin may appear. The preparation is intended for local treatment of acne lesions. If the product is applied to the skin in excessive amounts or during prolonged use, severe redness, peeling of the skin and discomfort may occur. Using Acnatac to reduce the signs of skin ageing is therefore not a good idea.
