Itching & Dryness - Minoz

2016-04-29 06:27:11
Does the antibiotic medicine Minoz OD causes dryness and itching on the skin? Am on a 20 day course of this medicine and after 10 days my skin has started to get dry and it's itching. Is it a part of the medicine? Hope there's nothing to worry about..

Minoz is an antibiotic. It won't cause dryness. It's probably some cream you are applying that is causing dyness. Stop using any acne creams you are currently applying . It is better to consult with your dermatologist for further management. Warm regards, Dr Pinanky Jadhav, Eternis Skin & Hair Clinic, Pune
