What is a Generic Drug?

A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.

The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.

Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

Description

Differin is a prescription acme medication that is applied topically on the skin to reduce the severity of acne breakouts and promote better skin healing from acne. It is prescribed for people who get inferior results from OTC acne treatment products and need something that is more effective for treating severe acne. This medication is part of the retinoid class of drugs that promote changes to the skin’s cells and also promote less swelling and inflammation. This medication is best used along with a good skin hygiene and cleaning regimen that limits the amount of sebum (oil) and contaminants present on the skin.

You can buy Differin gel with a doctor’s prescription at your local pharmacy, and your best price on it will be when you order medication online from Canada Drugs Direct.

Directions

Wash hands before applying medicated acne lotion. Use your fingertips to apply a small amount of the medication in a thin layer over acne affected skin. Allow to be absorbed fully before covering any affected areas of skin that are not on your face. Repeat daily.

Do not apply to areas of skin that are cut, scraped, sunburnt, or have eczema. This medication should not be used in conjunction with medicated creams for eczema applied to the same area.

It may take up to 12 weeks to start seeing results from the use of Differin moisturizer. Differin gel before and after evaluations should not be made any time within the first 8 weeks of treatment with this medicated acne solution.

Ingredients

The active ingredient in Differin gel is Adapalene.

Cautions

Differin gel may not be suitable for people who have allergies to Vitamin-A related drugs.

Differin gel can increases sun sensitivity for skin, so you should avoid prolonged exposure to sun on unprotected skin while using this medication. It is also best to not undergo electrolysis, waxing, or use chemical depilatories on treated skin while using the medication.

Use Differin with caution if you have recently used skin products with sulfur, resorcinol, or salicylic acid. It may best to wait before beginning on this medication and this is something to discuss with a doctor.

Interactions

There is the possibility of drug interaction risks between Differin moisturizer and other skincare products. These include alpha hydroxy acids, glycolic acid products, hair perming solutions, alcohol or lime/menthol-containing products like astringents, toners, and shaving lotions, medicated or abrasive soaps and cleansers, and soaps and cosmetics with a strong drying effect. Tell your doctor of any of these you may be using before receiving a prescription and proceeding to buy Differin gel.

Side Effects

Side effects from using Differin medicated gel for acne are uncommon, but some users may experience skin redness, dryness, itching, scaling, mild curing, or worsening acne. If these side effects are experienced you should stop using this medicated acne gel and meet with your doctor again to discuss other severe acne treatment options.
