Eltocin solution is used topically to treat acne (pimples) and some bacterial skin infections. This medication stops the growth of the bacteria responsible for causing acne, and this effectively helps in reducing the number of pimples.
Eltocin solution is used alone or in combination with other medications for effective results. Treatment should continue for 9-12 weeks according to the condition of the skin.
Use this medication as directed by your doctor, or refer to the instructions listed on the package on how to use it. It is advisable to apply once or twice a day. Do not apply in excess as it may cause adverse effects such as itchiness, peeling of skin, dryness.
Your skin may feel dry after applying the medication due to the presence of alcohol content in the formulation, and it is advised to moisturize your face to avoid this condition.
Do not stop if you feel like there is no response, as treatment may take several days from the start to show effective results.
