Neo Medrol Acne Lotion
Neo Medrol Acne Lotion is a topical treatment used primarily for managing acne. It contains a combination of two active ingredients:
-
Neomycin Sulfate: An antibiotic that works to combat bacterial infections on the skin, which can often be a contributing factor to acne breakouts.
-
Methylprednisolone Acetate: A corticosteroid that reduces inflammation, swelling, and redness, helping to alleviate the inflammatory component of acne.
Usage
Neo Medrol is typically applied directly to the affected areas of the skin. Its combination of antibiotic and anti-inflammatory properties makes it effective in reducing both bacterial overgrowth and inflammation that leads to acne formation.
Common Usage Guidelines:
- Apply as directed by a healthcare provider, usually once or twice a day.
- It is important to cleanse the skin before applying the lotion.
- Use only on the areas affected by acne, and avoid contact with eyes, mouth, or open wounds.
Side Effects:
Some possible side effects may include skin irritation, dryness, or a burning sensation where the lotion is applied. Prolonged use can lead to thinning of the skin due to the steroid component.
Neo Medrol is a prescription product, so it's important to follow a healthcare provider’s instructions when using it. If over-the-counter acne products haven’t worked, this might be an option for more serious or inflamed acne.
