Always use this medicine exactly as told by the doctor. Check with the doctor or pharmacist if unsure.
Important: Aklief is intended for patients from 12 years of age and older, only for use on the skin of the face and/or the trunk. Do not use this medicine on any other parts of the body. Do not swallow.
Keep Aklief away from children.
Method of administration: Before using the pump for the first time, prime it by pressing down several times until a small amount of medicine is dispensed (up to 10 times maximum). The pump is now ready to use. Apply a thin layer of Aklief cream to the affected areas of the face (forehead, nose, chin, and right and left cheeks) and all affected areas of the trunk once a day, in the evening, on a clean and dry skin.
One (1) pump actuation should be enough to cover the face (i.e. forehead, cheeks, nose and chin).
Two (2) pump actuations should be enough to cover the upper trunk (i.e. reachable upper back, shoulders and chest). One (1) additional pump actuation may be used for middle and lower back if acne is present.
More than four (4) pump actuations in one day is not recommended.
Avoid contact with the eyes, eyelids, lips and mucous membranes such as inside the nose or the mouth. If the cream accidentally gets in any of these areas, wash them immediately with plenty of lukewarm water.
Wash hands immediately after applying the cream.
It is recommended to use a moisturizer as frequently as needed from the initiation of Aklief treatment. The moisturizer can either be applied before or after Aklief, allowing sufficient time to let the skin dry between the moisturizer and Aklief application.
The doctor will advise how long Aklief will need to be used. After three months of treatment, the doctor may need to assess the continued improvement of the acne.
Contact a doctor or hospital immediately: if this medicine has been accidentally used by a child; if this medicine is accidentally swallowed. The doctor will advise on what action needs to be taken.
Use in children: Aklief should not be used by children below 12 years of age.
Forgot to use Aklief: If Aklief is forgotten to be used in the evening, it should be used the next evening. Do not apply a double dose to make up for a forgotten dose.
Stopping Aklief use: The spots (whiteheads, blackheads and inflammatory pimples) will be reduced only after several applications of this medicine. It is important to continue using Aklief as long as prescribed by the doctor.
If there are any further questions on the use of this medicine, ask the doctor or pharmacist.
