Hi adalene gel is applied only when there are pimples.it should not be applied on dry and peeling skin as it causes more dry and causes bumps.stop adalene for few days and use atarax 25 mg at night.antibiotic twice daily and application of moisteriser twice daily along with topical antibiotic and oral antibiotic can cure the condition
