Duac once daily Gel is a powerful anti-acne treatment effective against bacteria that cause scarring whiteheads and blackheads on the skin. It is mainly used for mild acne. The condition occurs due to the blocking of pores caused by excess sebum. Once blocked, the skin forms spots and pimples. If bacteria infects the areas, the skin gets acne. Duac Gel targets the pimples and prevents new impurities on the skin.

Description

What is Duac Gel?

Duac Gel is a combination acne treatment that contains two active ingredients: clindamycin (1%), an antibiotic that reduces bacteria causing acne, and benzoyl peroxide (3%), which helps break down blackheads and whiteheads while reducing inflammation. The gel is applied to the skin to reduce bacteria and target acne-causing factors, helping to clear up existing spots and prevent new ones from forming.

How Does Duac Gel Once Daily Work?

Duac gel is an antibiotic. It works by killing the bacteria that causes pimples on the face, back and neck. Duac Gel works by making use of two active ingredients known as clindamycin and benzoyl peroxide. The ingredients stop bacteria from reproducing and remove blockages from the skin pores. By fighting bacteria, Duac gel effectively produces results within one month
