Instruction

• Apply Epiduo Gel exactly as your doctor tells you to. It is best if you wash and gently dry the affected areas of your skin before you apply Epiduo Gel. A general point is that you should apply it to all of the area where your spots occur and not just to each spot. It is usual to apply it once each day in the evening. You only need to apply a thin layer of cream or gel. Remember to wash your hands after you have finished applying the cream/gel.
• If you have recently been using a preparation for your acne that causes your skin to peel, allow your skin to recover for a few days before you start using Epiduo Gel.
• Do not use the cream/gel on any areas of your skin which are sunburnt or sore. Also, try to avoid getting it on the sensitive areas of your skin in or around your nostrils, your eyes and your mouth. Try not to let it build up in the folds or creases of your skin.
