New Vehicles for Acne Therapy

December 23rd, 2005

Recently there have been two new vehicles that have joined the war against acne. As addressed in a prior post, the vehicle, or agent that carries the active medication, can be critical in the usefullness and compliance of acne therapy.

Evoclin foam introduces the foam vehicle to the acne world. This foam based clindamycin product can be used anywhere on the body and is great for those who suffer from acne on both the face and body. Other advantages are its once a day indication which can also increase compliance. The product is applied to the active areas and is heat activated. It simply melts into the skin and goes on clean.

Plexion cleansing cloths are also new and offer the power of sodium sulfacetamide 10% and sulfur 5% to be applied in a convenient wash cloth. The cloth is placed under water, lathered and then applied to the face. Simple and effective.

If you feel you may benefit from these medication, please speak with your dermatologist.
