Avar Frequently Asked Questions

This medication is for use on the skin only. Clean off make-up, oil and excess dirt from your face with a gentle cleanser before using this product. Wet the affected areas of skin before washing with this medication.

If your liquid form is a suspension, shake the bottle well before each use.

If you are using the liquid cleanser product, apply a generous layer of medication as directed by your doctor, usually once or twice daily. Gently massage it into the affected skin for 10 to 20 seconds until a full lather forms. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry.

If you are using the cleansing cloth product, wash the affected areas with a cleansing cloth as directed by your doctor, usually once or twice daily. First wet your face with water. Then wet the cloth with a little water and work into a full lather. Cleanse your face with the cloth for 10-20 seconds. Do not get the lather into your eyes. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry.

If excessive drying occurs, you may need to rinse the cleanser off sooner or use it less often. Avoid getting any of this medication in the eyes, on the lips, or inside the nose or mouth. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for further details.

Tell your doctor if your condition does not get better or if it gets worse.
