How Acnesol Lotion works

Acne lotions typically work by reducing acne-causing bacteria on the skin and/or helping unplug pores by promoting shedding of dead skin cells. This reduces formation of new pimples and helps existing lesions heal faster.

How to take Acnesol Lotion

For external use only. Clean and dry the affected area, then apply a thin layer to acne-affected skin once or twice daily or as directed by a doctor. Avoid contact with eyes, lips, inside nose and broken/irritated skin; wash hands after application. If excessive dryness/irritation occurs, reduce frequency.

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. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Acnesol Lotion

Most side effects of Acnesol are mild and settle as the body adjusts. Reported side effects include:

• burning/stinging

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.
