Deriva CMS Gel

Product Overview

DERIVA CMS GEL is a topical acne treatment combining the active ingredients Adapalene and Clindamycin Phosphate. This gel formulation is clinically proven to effectively manage acne vulgaris, addressing common skin concerns like pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads.

 

Uses

DERIVA CMS GEL is specifically formulated for the treatment of mild to moderate acne vulgaris in individuals aged 12 years and above. It works to clear existing acne blemishes, prevent new breakouts, and promote healthier-looking skin.

 

How to Use

For optimal results:
1. Cleanse and dry the affected area thoroughly
2. Apply a thin layer of gel once daily (preferably at bedtime)
3. Avoid contact with eyes, mouth, nostrils, and sensitive areas
4. Wash hands immediately after application

 

How it Works

This dual-action formula combines:
• Adapalene (a retinoid) – regulates skin cell turnover and prevents pore clogging
• Clindamycin Phosphate (an antibiotic) – combats acne-causing bacteria and reduces inflammation
