For cutaneous use only.

Posology
Adults and Adolescents (aged 12 years and above)
Duac gel should be applied once daily in the evening, to the entire affected area.
Patients should be advised that excessive application will not improve efficacy, but may increase the risk of skin irritation. If excessive dryness or peeling occurs, frequency of application should be reduced or application temporarily interrupted (see section 4.4).

An effect on inflammatory and non-inflammatory lesions may be seen as early as week 2-5 of treatment (see section 5.1).

The safety and efficacy of Duac Gel has not been studied beyond 12 weeks in acne vulgaris clinical trials.

Treatment with Duac Gel should not exceed more than 12 weeks of continuous use.


Pediatric population
The safety and efficacy of Duacgel has not been established in children under 12 years of age, therefore Duac gel is not recommended for use in this population.

Elderly patients

No specific recommendations.
Method of administration
Duac Gel should be applied in a thin film after washing gently with a mild cleanser and fully drying. If the gel does not rub into the skin easily, too much is being applied.
Hands should be washed after application
