Acnecide is a range of over-the-counter acne treatments that use Benzoyl Peroxide as their active ingredient. It works by killing the bacteria that cause acne (P. acnes) and by gently peeling the outer layer of skin, which helps to unclog pores and reduce excess oil. This dual action helps to clear existing spots and prevent new ones from forming.
At Weldricks Pharmacy, we stock a variety of Acnecide products to suit different needs. Our range includes Acnecide 5% w/w Benzoyl Peroxide Daily Acne Treatment Gels (in 30g and 60g sizes), Acnecide Wash 5% w/w Gels (in 50g and 100g sizes), Acnecide Face Gel 15g, Purifide Acnecide Daily Moisturiser SPF30, and Purifide 3 in 1 Power Patches. This selection allows for a comprehensive approach to your acne care routine.
Always read the product leaflet carefully before use. Generally, Acnecide gels are applied thinly to affected areas once or twice daily after cleansing. Acnecide washes are typically used during your daily cleansing routine, lathered onto wet skin for a short period before rinsing thoroughly. It's important to start with a lower frequency (e.g., once daily or every other day) to allow your skin to adjust, as some drying or irritation may occur initially. Using a non-comedogenic moisturiser, like the Purifide Acnecide Daily Moisturiser, is recommended to combat dryness.
Common side effects can include skin dryness, redness, peeling, and a mild stinging sensation, especially when first starting treatment. These usually lessen with continued use. If irritation is severe or persistent, reduce the frequency of application or discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. Acnecide can also bleach fabrics, so be careful with clothing and bedding.
Managing acne can be a challenge, but with the right products and information, clearer skin is achievable. Weldricks Pharmacy is dedicated to supporting your health journey with effective solutions like Acnecide and professional advice. Always consult a healthcare professional if your acne is severe or not improving. For more in-depth medical information on acne, please visit the NHS website.
