Treatment Information

Overview

Adex Gel is a highly moisturizing emollient that treats and manages dry skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis, eczema, contact dermatitis, and psoriasis. The gel is specially designed for daily use to provide routine management of dry and/or inflamed skin conditions.

Adex Gel has an ancillary anti-inflammatory medicinal substance called nicotinamide (a form of vitamin B3) that instantly helps decrease inflammation during flare-ups. This helps reduce reliance on stronger corticosteroids and immunomodulators such as Betnovate or Eumovate.

The deep moisturizing properties of Adex gel are thanks to a combination of two ingredients, liquid paraffin and glycerol. The high oil content from these two ingredients holds the natural moisture of the skin thus preventing dry, cracked skin.

Directions

Apply Adex gel as often as required. Gently apply the gel over dry and inflamed skin areas. Smooth it out around the skin with gentle strokes. Gently rub the product into the skin to allow any excess to soak in.

If you are using other topical products, do not overlap with the Adex gel. Allow adequate time for each product to absorb in the skin before applying Adex gel. For topical corticosteroids, at least allow 30 minutes, and for certain calcineurin inhibitors up to 2 hours for proper absorption. The layering of products should be avoided to prevent the spread of products to areas that do not need it.

You can use Adex gel for as long as required. You can make it a part of your daily skincare routine or use it occasionally when your skin is inflamed or cracked.
