Description
What is Aknichthol and when is it used?
Aknichthol contains two active ingredients:
- Sodium bituminosulfonate light (light sulfonated slate oil): has an antibacterial effect, reduces painful skin inflammation and promotes blood circulation.
- Salicylic acid: normalizes the excessive keratinization of the sebaceous glands in acne and also has an anti-inflammatory effect.
Aknichthol is a medicine for the external treatment of mild to moderate acne.
Three treatment principles of local therapy for acne vulgaris (blackheads/bibles) are met when using Aknichthol:
1. Cleaning and degreasing
2. Therapeutic influence of the various active ingredients
3. Covering effect (discreet covering of visible skin changes)
What should be considered?
In stubborn cases of acne, the healing success is supported by internal measures. It is advisable to take the disease into account in your general lifestyle. You should ask your doctor about this. It is necessary to continue treatment with Aknichthol for some time after the visible skin lesions have disappeared in order to prevent recurrence.
When should Aknichthol not be used?
The drug should not be used in case of hypersensitivity to any of the listed ingredients.
When should caution be exercised when using Aknichthol?
The additional use of other topical preparations can impair the effect of Aknichthol and should be avoided.
The simultaneous use of several topical acne remedies can cause dryness and irritation of the skin and should only be done on the doctor's orders.
Other locally applied drugs may penetrate the skin to a greater extent. Furthermore, an interaction with methotrexate and sulfonylureas is possible.
Aknichthol should only be used on the affected parts of the skin. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Do not apply to broken skin or large body surfaces.
Not for children under the age of 12.
Inform your doctor, pharmacist or druggist if you
- suffer from other illnesses,
- have allergies or
- other medicines (including those you have bought!) are taking or using externally!
Can Aknichthol be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
As a precautionary measure, you should avoid taking medicines during pregnancy and breastfeeding. If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant or breastfeeding, you should only use Aknichthol® after consulting your doctor.
How do you use Aknichthol?
Adults and adolescents over 12 years of age:
Unless otherwise prescribed by the doctor, Aknichthol is used daily in the morning and evening. The affected skin areas are cleaned with warm or cold water without soap and dried. After shaking the suspension, about 20 drops are evenly distributed on a swab (or cotton pad or cosmetic tissue). The swab is pulled over the affected areas of skin, applying slight pressure, step by step, until the medicine covers it inconspicuously. Eyelids and lip blush must be left out. Men apply the suspension in the beard area in the direction of beard growth.
The duration of treatment depends on the doctor's recommendations.
The use and safety of Aknichthol in children under the age of 12 has not yet been tested.
Stick to the dosage given in the package leaflet or prescribed by your doctor. If you think the medicine is too weak or too strong, talk to your doctor, pharmacist or druggist.
What side effects can Aknichthol have?
The following side effects can occur when using Aknichthol:
In rare cases, skin intolerance reactions can occur, which manifest themselves in severe itching, burning and reddening of the skin. If such symptoms occur, you should consult your doctor.
Slight dehydration and slight peeling of the skin due to Aknichthol is intended. Wrinkles caused by the dehydration disappear after the peeling.
If you notice any side effects that are not described here, you should inform your doctor, pharmacist or druggist.
What else needs to be considered?
Aknichthol contains no preservatives.
Treat stains caused by Aknichthol with solid gall soap, leave on for about 5 minutes and apply then wash with washing powder at the maximum permissible temperature.
Keep medicines out of the reach of children!
Store at room temperature (15 - 25 °C).
Aknichthol may only be used up to the date marked «EXP» on the container.
Your doctor, pharmacist or druggist can provide you with further information. These people have the detailed technical information.
