adapalene | Adacline cream 1 mg / g, 30 g

Pharmacological action

Adacline is a drug for external use. Adapalene is a retinoid metabolite, has comedonolytic and anti-inflammatory effects, normalizes the processes of keratinization and epidermal differentiation. The mechanism of action of adapalene is based on interaction with specific gamma receptors of epidermal skin cells.

As a result of the action of adapalene, in particular, there is a decrease in the “adhesion” of epithelial cells at the mouth of the sebaceous hair follicle and a decrease in the prerequisites for the formation of micro comedones. Adapalene has an anti-inflammatory effect in vitro and in vivo, acting on inflammation factors by inhibiting leukocyte migration in the focus of inflammation and arachidonic acid metabolism.
