just one of the many ages and stages that struggle with hormone-driven acne.
Not actual patients.
An excess of certain hormones in the skin, called androgens, can help contribute to the development of acne. People with acne may produce more androgen hormones, increasing the amount of sebum and inflammation, which may lead to acne.
WINLEVI is the only topical that treats acne by preventing acne hormones (androgens) from reaching their target—the sebaceous glands. Fewer androgens in your teen’s skin may mean reduced sebum and potential bacterial growth and inflammation. And that means an improvement in acne in ALL acne patients 12 and older.
The most common side effects of WINLEVI cream include reddening, scaling or dryness, and itching of the skin being treated. These are not all of the possible side effects of WINLEVI cream.
The exact way WINLEVI works on acne is unknown.
The safety of WINLEVI was studied over 12 months.
WINLEVI demonstrated safety in both FEMALE and MALE patients who used the treatment for up to 12 months.
Side effects were generally mild to moderate.
The most common reactions were mild skin redness, peeling or dryness, and itching where WINLEVI was applied. These are not all of the possible side effects of WINLEVI.
In a study where people applied 6X the prescribed amount of WINLEVI, some patients experienced a disorder where the adrenal gland does not make enough of certain hormones. However, this did not occur in WINLEVI clinical trials with the prescribed twice-daily dosing of one gram.
