Precautions While Using This MedicineIf your
acne does not improve within 4 weeks, or if it becomes worse, check with your
health care professional. However, it may take longer than 4 weeks before
you notice full improvement in your acne even if you use the medicine every
day.
If this medicine causes too much redness, peeling, or dryness of your skin,
check with your doctor. It may be necessary for you to reduce the number of
times a day that you use the medicine or to stop using the medicine for a
short time until your skin is less irritated.
If your doctor has ordered another medicine to be applied to the skin along
with this medicine, it is best to apply them at different times. This may
help keep your skin from becoming too irritated. Also, if the medicines are
used at or near the same time, they may not work properly.
You may continue to use cosmetics (make-up) while you are using this medicine
for acne. However, it is best to use only water-base cosmetics. Also, it is
best not to use cosmetics too heavily or too often. They may make your acne
worse. If you have any questions about this, check with your doctor.
