Medicinal Benefits

Dapsib Gel 15 gm is a combination of two drugs namely, Adapalene and Dapsone used to treat acne (pimples). Adapalene is a retinoid (synthetic or man-made vitamin A) that loosens the cells on the skin’s surface and unblocks pores by reducing the production of oil in the skin. Thereby, it decreases pimples, spots, whiteheads, and blackheads. Also, adapalene increases the production of new skin cells and helps in the natural exfoliation (removal of dead skin cells) of the outer layers of the skin. The acne-causing bacteria feeds on sebum produced by sebaceous (oil) glands in the skin and produce fatty acids and waste products that irritate oil glands, causing redness and swelling. Dapsone inhibits the production of folic acid (vitamin) that is necessary for bacteria to grow, multiply and increase in numbers. Thereby, it stops or slows down the growth of bacteria, causing acne, and heals the skin by reducing swelling and redness.
