Accutane

Generic Propecia

Treat male pattern baldness with FDA-approved finasteride (generic Propecia), a convenient once-daily pill, if prescribed.
Dapsone is a prescription-strength topical gel that works by reducing inflammation and targeting bacteria involved in acne development. It is particularly effective for inflammatory acne, including red, swollen pimples, and pustules. Dapsone also has mild antibacterial properties, helping to calm the skin and prevent further breakouts.
Apply a thin layer of Dapsone gel to the affected areas of clean, dry skin. Use it once or twice daily as recommended. Gently massage it in until it is fully absorbed. Avoid applying it to open wounds, severely dry patches, or areas with excessive irritation to prevent further discomfort.
Mild side effects include redness, dryness, itching, or irritation at the site of application. These effects typically improve as your skin adjusts to the medication. Less commonly, some users experience peeling or flaking, which can be managed by using a non-comedogenic moisturizer daily.
Dapsone can often be safely combined with other acne treatments, such as retinoids or topical antibiotics. However, it should not be used simultaneously with products containing Benzoyl Peroxide, as this can cause temporary yellow or orange discoloration of the skin. If you’re using multiple acne medications, apply them at different times of the day to minimize interactions.
Finasteride is for male pattern hair loss in men only, and is not for women or children. Pregnant women should not handle crushed or broken tablets due to fetal risk. See pricing details here.

Common Question

Most users begin noticing an improvement in inflammation and redness within 2–3 weeks of consistent use. Significant results are typically seen after 8–12 weeks. To maintain clear skin, continue using Dapsone even after your acne improves.
Yes, Dapsone is often tolerated by individuals with sensitive skin. However, if you experience significant irritation, reduce application frequency to once daily or every other day. A patch test on a small area can also help assess tolerance before widespread application.
Dapsone’s safety during pregnancy or breastfeeding is not fully established, but it is generally considered a low-risk topical treatment. It is minimally absorbed into the bloodstream, reducing the likelihood of systemic effects.
Severe irritation is uncommon. If you experience persistent redness, swelling, or a burning sensation, reduce usage frequency and apply a hydrating, fragrance-free moisturizer. For more severe reactions, discontinue use temporarily.
Dapsone is most effective for inflammatory acne, such as pimples, pustules, and cystic lesions. It may not be as effective for non-inflammatory acne, like blackheads or whiteheads. Combining it with complementary treatments can help address multiple types of acne.
