Finacea is a topical gel used to treat mild to moderate rosacea, a skin condition that causes redness and pimples on the face. The active ingredient in Finacea is azelaic acid, which works by reducing inflammation and killing the bacteria that contribute to rosacea. Finacea is suitable for adults who are dealing with rosacea symptoms such as facial redness and papules.
About Finacea
Dosage and usage
You should apply a thin layer of Finacea gel to the affected areas of your skin twice a day, in the morning and evening. Gently massage the gel into your skin until it is absorbed. Be careful to avoid contact with your eyes, mouth, and other mucous membranes. There is no specific limitation on the duration of treatment with Finacea, but you should follow your healthcare provider's instructions. If you experience any severe skin irritation or other unexpected reactions, stop using Finacea and consult your doctor.
What Finacea contains
Each gram of Finacea gel contains 15% azelaic acid as the active ingredient. The gel also includes benzoic acid, disodium edetate, lecithin, medium-chain triglycerides, polyacrylic acid, polysorbate 80, propylene glycol, purified water, and sodium hydroxide.
Side effects
Common side effects of Finacea may include itching, burning, tingling, dryness, or redness at the application site. In some cases, you may experience contact dermatitis or worsening of rosacea symptoms. Serious side effects are rare but may include severe allergic reactions or a worsening of skin irritation. If you notice any signs of a severe reaction like difficulty breathing or swelling of the face, seek immediate medical attention.
Precautions
Avoid using Finacea if you are allergic to any of its ingredients or if you have a known sensitivity to propylene glycol. This product is not intended for use by children. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before using Finacea. If you have a history of skin conditions or are taking any medications, especially those affecting your skin, talk to your doctor before starting Finacea treatment.

I am so grateful to Doctoronline.co.uk and I can’t express my appreciation enough, as they were there when I couldn’t get an appointment with my own NHS GP here in London.They are absolutely amazing and they have taken away the stress and anxiety that I felt when I needed a GP appointment and the thought of going through the whole process and worrying about missing a telephone call from my GP practice because I was working and knowing they wouldn’t call back .
Excellent service.

Very efficient
Very efficient. The website order form was simple and easy to follow. I couldn't get a doctor's appointment for a medication I have previously been prescribed so I opted to buy from this company instead. The price was reasonable and the medication worked perfectly and quickly and eradicated the problem, I'm back to good health again. It arrived quickly. I wouldn't hesitate to use this company again if necessary when I can't get a doctor's appointment.
