###How does Adex Gel work?
Adex Gel works as an emollient, which creates a protective barrier over the skin when applied. This barrier helps to lock in moisture, providing hydration to the skin, and protecting it from irritants and further inflammation.
###Who can use Adex Gel?
Adex Gel is suitable for adults, the elderly, and children over 1 year of age.
###Is Adex Gel safe for pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers?
While vitamin B derivative requirements, such as nicotinamide, are increased during pregnancy and infancy, safety trials have not been conducted during pregnancy and breastfeeding. With prolonged use over significant areas, it may be possible to exceed the recommended levels of nicotinamide during pregnancy. Therefore, caution should be exercised, particularly in the first three months of pregnancy. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for advice before using Adex Gel.
###What should I do if I accidentally swallow Adex Gel?
If Adex Gel is accidentally swallowed, its oily ingredients may cause diarrhoea. Treat the symptoms as you would in any case of diarrhoea and drink plenty of water. Do not attempt to cause vomiting.
###What makes Adex Gel different from other emollient treatments?
Adex Gel's primary emollient action is supplemented with an added anti-inflammatory action provided by nicotinamide (a form of Vitamin B3) to reduce inflammation and redness. This makes Adex Gel a unique and convenient approach to treating dry skin conditions prone to inflammation.
###Is Adex Gel suitable for all skin types?
Adex Gel is developed for dry skin conditions prone to inflammation, such as mild to moderate eczema and psoriasis. It is suitable for frequent and regular application and can be used all over the body, including on the face and in creases of the skin.
###Does Adex Gel contain any topical corticosteroids?
No, Adex Gel does not contain any topical corticosteroids.
###Is Adex Gel easily absorbed by the skin?
Yes, Adex Gel is easily absorbed by the skin and offers a highly moisturizing action. Its formulation contains a high level of oils (30%) and the humectant glycerol, making it easy to absorb and highly moisturizing.
###How does Adex Gel reduce inflammation and redness?
Adex Gel's ancillary anti-inflammatory action is provided by nicotinamide (4%), a medicinal substance which is a form of Vitamin B3. This helps to reduce inflammation and redness in dry skin conditions prone to inflammation.
