Effective and easy to apply acne treatment.

Pernex AC is a powerful antibacterial gel that fights the root cause of acne.
Pernex AC treats the bacteria that causes acne and helps to clear your skin of existing spots and cysts. Order Pernex AC online, get repeat deliveries at your door and never run out of your medicines again.
Pernex AC is an effective antiseptic treatment for vulgaris acne (a common form of acne). It contains benzoyl peroxide. It helps to prevent spots and pimples from appearing to leave you with clearer skin.
Pernex AC is a branded medication and it’s also available as Bengel AC, Ronimide, Acnox, Cansol, Benzac AC, and Oxiben. All these treatments work to treat acne in the same way, but their appearance may differ due to branding.
Pernex AC is applied to the face using the fingers and comes in gel form. Your doctor will tell you how long to use it for. Improvements in the amount of spots and pimples is usually noticeable within a few weeks of use.
Acne is caused by bacteria becoming clogged in the pores on your face. Pores are there to help remove dead skin cells from the face and this is done with the help of an oily substance called sebum. When the pores become blocked sebum builds up and bacteria starts to grow. This is what gives pimples their inflamed appearance and also the ‘white head’ that you associate with acne.
Acne affects over 30% of the population in India and is most common in the 20–29 year age group with over 12% of people this age suffering from acne caused by pores blocked with sebum.
Pernex AC contains benzoyl peroxide. This kills the bacteria that causes acne and so prevents it from clogging the pores. This helps to treat pimples that are already present and also to prevent new ones from occurring.
Benzoyl peroxide also helps to remove the dead skin cells that leave the body through the pores and this prevents the pores from becoming blocked.
Its anti-inflammatory properties also reduce the redness on the skin that’s associated with acne.
Acne can have a negative affect on mental health and can leave people feeling depressed and unwilling to socialise due to low self-confidence.
Pernex AC comes in two dosage sizes: 2.5% and 5%. These are both gels and the percentage shows how much of the active ingredient, benzoyl peroxide, is in the gel.
After looking at your acne and talking to you about your symptoms, health and medical history your doctor will be able to advise you about the best dose for you to start on. It’s common to start on the lower dose and then increase the dose if the treatment isn’t effective.
Pernex AC doesn’t work for everyone and in rare cases it may cause some mild side effects. If this is the case, your doctor will be able to explore alternative treatments for you to try.
