What medicines should be avoided while using Acnewar?

Tell your doctor if you are taking dapsone tablets, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole tablets or any antimalarial medications. If you take these medicines while using Acnewar, you may be more susceptible to certain side effects. Tell your doctor if you are using any other medicines which need to be applied on the skin, such as benzoyl peroxide. Using both these medicines together may make your skin or facial hair to temporarily turn yellow or orange at the site of application.

Can Acnewar cause anemia?

Patients with deficiency of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) have a greater risk of developing low hemoglobin level while using this medicine. But using the gel on the skin does not put enough Acnewar in the blood to cause clinical symptoms of hemolytic anemia (breakdown of red blood cells).

Is Acnewar an immunosuppressant or a steroid?

Acnewar is neither an immunosuppressant nor a steroid. It has anti-inflammatory (reduces, swelling, and itching) and antimicrobial (kills germs) properties. It is thought to act by eliminating microbes as well as having an anti-inflammatory effect on acne.

How should Acnewar gel be applied?

Wash and pat dry the area where you want to apply Acnewar gel. Apply a pea-sized amount of gel in a thin layer to the areas of your skin that have acne. Rub it gently and completely. It may feel gritty and you may see particles in the gel. Remember to wash your hands after applying the gel.
