What is Aziderm Cream?
Aziderm Cream containing the active ingredient azelaic acid belongs to a class of medications called dicarboxylic acids. The medication works by reducing the food source of bacteria on the skin to inhibit their growth and unblock pores. By opening the pores and keeping them unblocked, the cream can allow the skin to renew itself more quickly and reduce acne pimples and blackhead formation.
How is Aziderm Cream used?
Aziderm Cream is usually applied topically twice per day, once in the morning and once at night unless otherwise advised by the doctor. Contact a doctor for the correct dosage and length of treatment as it will depend on the patient's condition and their response to the therapy. Prior to applying the cream, wash and dry the affected area with mild soap and water. To administer the medication, apply a thin layer of the cream onto the affected area and gently massage it into the skin. Do not cover the treated area with any dressings, wrappings or bandages after applying the cream.
