Foracne Gel

Description

Foracne Gel, manufactured by Cipla Ltd., is a topical gel formulated for the treatment of acne vulgaris. It combines Clindamycin, a powerful antibacterial agent, with Nicotinamide, a vitamin B3 derivative known for its anti-inflammatory and sebum-regulating properties. This combination helps reduce acne lesions, redness, and inflammation, promoting clearer, healthier skin.
