How Acn Soap works

Acne cleansing soaps help by removing excess sebum, dirt and sweat from the skin surface and keeping pores clean. Depending on the formulation (if medicated), they may also reduce acne-causing bacteria and mild inflammation.

How to take Acn Soap

For external use only. Wet skin, apply soap to lather gently over affected areas, leave for 20–30 seconds, then rinse thoroughly. Use 1–2 times daily or as advised by a doctor; reduce frequency if excessive dryness occurs. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take the missed dose of Acn Soap as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed one and carry on with the usual schedule. Do not take two doses together to make up for a missed dose.

If you take too much

Taking more Acn Soap than prescribed can be harmful. If you suspect an overdose, contact a doctor or go to the nearest emergency department at once, and carry the pack or strip with you. In India the emergency number is 112.
