Introduction: In Acne Azcin Gel treats acne, commonly called pimples. It kills the acne-causing bacteria and prevents spots or pimples from appearing.

This medicine will help improve your mood and uplift your confidence as your skin becomes acne free. It should not be used if you have eczema or sunburned skin. In Treatment of Bacterial infections Azcin Gel is an antibiotic medicine that can be used to treat many different infections caused by bacteria.
