Apgel gel is used in the treatment of acne (pimples). It works by preventing the accumulation of oil under the skin, and this gel also opens the pores of the skin and allows natural exfoliation. Although, the exact mechanism of action is unknown. The apgel gel is meant for external use only. Avoid the application of gel on cracked or broken skin.
Apply the gel as advised by the doctor. Clean the affected area before applying the gel. Do not miss the dose even if you feel better, as it may worsen the condition. Wash your hands before and after applying the gel. Do not scratch the affected area as it may delay the process of healing.
The most common side effects of apgel gel include dryness, burning sensation, redness, itching, scaling of the skin, and skin discomfort. If the side effects persist or worsen, then inform the doctor immediately. Inform your doctor before using this gel if you are pregnant or intend to be pregnant or breastfeeding or taking any other topical medications for a skin condition.
