I often get knot like pimples on my face. Doctor has suggested me to use nadoxin gel for pimples I am applying but still getting pimples and dark spots.

Question

You should try clindoxyl gel/ deriva bpo gel once daily at evening. Initially it can cause burning. So if burning is severe, facewash immediately. After 1 week you will tolerate this. Avoid sunlight as much as possible, if you go in sunlight, use umbrella, cover face with cloth (dupatta) and apply good sunscreen (photostable gold/acne uv gel ).

Hi. Nadoxin (nadifloxacin) is used in pimples with some pustular lesions and only this will not help to reduce your pimples. U may need to use other antiacne medications like adapalene/ benzol peroxide /azelaic acid etc depending on the grade of acne. Thanks.

The treatment of acne differs according to the grade of involvement. Some people have more oilyness on the face which results in breakouts. After completing treatment for controlling the active breakouts, tablets can be stopped and creams need to be continued to prevent recurrence. Diet and lifestyle modifications are also important. Please don't do any self treatment such as over the counter Steroid creams. Don't burst the pimples with your fingers as it can result in ugly scars. The marks and pores left behind after the pimples heal can also be treated. Please send your photos through online consult option for detailed prescription and diet advice.,
