NEO MEDROL ACNE LOTION

NEO-MEDROL ACNE LOTION

(Methylprednisolone Acetate, Neomycin Sulfate, Aluminum Chlorhydroxide Complex and Colloidal Sulfur)

INDICATIONS
For control of acne vulgaris in the adolescent and young adult. Also in some cases of acne rosacea and seborrheic dermatitis.

CONTRAINDICATIONS
In tuberculosis of the skin, herpes simplex, vaccinia, varicella and in other cutaneous infections
which do not respond to neomycin. Known hypersensitivity to any of the components.

PRECAUTIONS
Avoid contact with eyes. If signs of irritation or sensitivity develop, application should be discontinued. As with any antibiotic containing product, overgrowth by resistant organisms may occur, particularly monilia. If this occurs, discontinue treatment and institute appropriate measures. Articles in current medical literature indicate an increase in the incidence of patients allergic to neomycin. The possibility of such a reaction should be borne in mind.

This is a combination medication that contains two active ingredients: neomycin and methylprednisolone.

Neomycin is an antibiotic that helps kill the bacteria that may cause or aggravate acne. Methylprednisolone is an anti-inflammatory that helps to reduce the redness and swelling associated with acne. This medication is used to control acne in adolescents and young adults and is sometimes used to treat seborrheic dermatitis and acne rosacea.
