Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?
A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Acnecross Gel. The medicine inside is the same — the brand name, manufacturer and price are what differ.
All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.
Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.

Uses of Acnecross Gel

How Acnecross Gel works
Acne gels typically work by reducing acne-causing bacteria, decreasing inflammation, and helping unclog pores (comedolytic effect). The exact mechanism depends on the active ingredient(s) in this brand; check the pack label for the full composition.
How to take Acnecross Gel
For external use only. Clean and dry the affected area, then apply a thin layer to acne-affected skin as advised by a doctor (often once daily at night or twice daily). Avoid contact with eyes, lips, and broken/irritated skin; wash hands after application.
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
Apply it as soon as you remember. If it is nearly time for the next application, skip the missed one — applying extra does not make up for it.
If you take too much
An overdose of this medicine can cause vomiting, severe loose motions and nerve symptoms. It is unlikely to cause serious harm, because the body passes surplus B vitamins out in the urine. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
Side effects of Acnecross Gel
Most side effects of Acnecross are mild and settle as the body adjusts. Reported side effects include:
- Skin irritation
- burning or stinging
- redness
- dryness
- peeling
- itching
Stop the medicine and seek help immediately for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
