Salicylic Acid 2%/Niacinamide 5% Topical Cream is a compounded formulation designed to address a range of skin conditions. This unique combination of active ingredients, salicylic acid and niacinamide, work synergistically to alleviate inflammation, reduce redness, and minimize the visibility of acne.

Salicylic acid, a keratolytic agent, facilitates the breakdown of the skin's outer layer. This action aids in the easy removal of dead skin cells and debris, promoting a clearer and healthier skin surface. On the other hand, niacinamide, an anti-inflammatory compound, helps to mitigate redness and inflammation often associated with acne, contributing to a more even skin tone.

This dual-action cream is not only effective for acne but also beneficial for other skin conditions such as rosacea and psoriasis. Its therapeutic properties can help diminish the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots, promoting a more youthful and radiant complexion.

When using Salicylic Acid 2%/Niacinamide 5% Topical Cream, it is crucial to adhere to the directions provided by your healthcare provider or pharmacist. The cream should be applied to the affected area twice daily, taking care to avoid contact with the eyes, nose, and mouth. It is also advised not to use this medication on broken or irritated skin to prevent any potential adverse reactions.
