One of the most popular drugs used to treat and prevent the appearance of pimples and comedones is Differin. But the analogs of this medicine are also very often bought to combat inflammations in the skin layers, because they no less effectively destroy acne and cleanse the sebaceous gland ducts.
Analog Differin - Clenzite
Clenzite is a cheap analog of Differin. As an active substance, these gels contain the same chemical compound, adapalene. Clenzite has a comedonolytic and anti-inflammatory activity, so it is capable of:
- normalize the processes of keratinization;
- reduce the intensity of the inflammatory process on the skin;
- prevent the formation of micro-comedones;
- cleanse the ducts of the sebaceous glands.
Clenzite is used only externally, but it is strictly forbidden to apply to the skin if its integrity is damaged. To eliminate acne, such gel should be treated for a duration of 4 to 8 weeks.
To say what is better, Clenzite or Differin, is rather difficult, since these drugs differ only in production technology and in price. The choice is only for the patient, who in case of ineffectiveness of one of the drugs fearlessly can replace it with another.
Analog Differerin-Baziron
Baziron is an analogue of the Differin gel, despite the fact that the composition of these drugs is fundamentally different. The main active substance of this drug is not adapaline, but peroxide, but it also exerts a pronounced antimicrobial effect and normalizes secretion in the sebaceous glands. After its application, the skin becomes smooth, smooth, and the redness disappears.
To find out what is better to buy - Differin or Baziron, consult your doctor, as the drug should be chosen based on the cause of the appearance of acne, because the mechanism of action for inflammation in them is fundamentally different. So, Baziron is ideal for those who have rashes have no hormonal causes, that is, arise against stress, depression, digestive tract diseases or inadequate hygiene, as he, destroying the bacteria, removes the external form of acne. But Differin thanks to active substances in its composition, effectively fights against acne and with the gums that appeared due to hormonal failures and imbalances, because it reduces the production of sebum, improves oxygen intake and reduces the amount of scales in the stratum corneum.
Other effective analogues of Differin
Many people, faced with acne eruptions on the skin, mistakenly believe that instead of Differin, you can use any ointments and gels that have antimicrobial effect. In fact, the drugs used to treat acne, for example Skinoren, are not always analogous to Differin. Medications belonging to the same pharmacogroup with this drug and having about the same therapeutic effect, in addition to Baziron and Clenzit, are considered only:
- ointment Videstim;
- gel Effezzel;
- isotrexin gel;
- Retinoic ointment;
- Radevit ointment;
- solution of Retasol;
- gel Adapalen;
- gel Adolen;
- cream Adaklin.
Use an analog cream is necessary for those with skin that is very thin, sensitive and predisposed to the occurrence of allergic reactions or irritations. But the gel-analogue of Differin is best used for people with thick enough and oily skin. But it is best to choose a drug with a doctor, based on the skin condition and intensity of rashes. So, you exclude the possibility of redness, flaking, dryness or burning sensation.
