Benter 2.5% Medicated Soap 75 gm

Benter 2.5% Medicated Soap is used to treat bacterial skin infections like acne (pimples). Acne is a skin condition that occurs when the hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells.

Benter 2.5% Medicated Soap contains ‘Benzoyl Peroxide’ that kills bacteria, reduces inflammation and unplugs blocked pores. Benter 2.5% Medicated Soap decomposes to release oxygen when applied to the skin. This oxygen acts as a bactericidal agent and kills Propionibacterium acnes, the bacteria that causes acne. Benter 2.5% Medicated Soap increases the turnover rate of epithelial cells (cells that line the surface of the skin), eventually helps in peeling the skin and treating comedones (skin-coloured, small bumps due to acne). Benter 2.5% Medicated Soap also has a mild drying effect that allows excess oils and dirt to be washed away from the skin.

Benter 2.5% Medicated Soap is for external use only. Avoid contact with eyes, eyelids, lips, mouth and nose. If the medicine comes in contact with any of these areas, rinse with water immediately. Do not use Benter 2.5% Medicated Soap on sunburned, windburned, dry, or irritated skin. Common side effects of Benter 2.5% Medicated Soap include dry skin, erythema (skin redness), burning sensation, itching, skin irritation, swelling, blistering, crusting, and skin rash.
