What Are The Long Term Effects Of Using Deriva Cms?
Hi doc. I have been using deriva cms since the last two years. It works on me and it stops acne,prevents it from coming and does natural peeling too which makes the scars go away. I just wanted to know does it contain any steroids ,or harmful in any way for long term use.? Thank you.

Hi,
Deriva cms contains antibiotic and retinoid combination. Long term usage is not recommended unless being guided by a specialist dermatologist. It can skin irritation, peeling, sensitisation to UV rays (sunlight). in some studies it is found that for long term usage, it can cause pregnancy issues. So always consult with the specialist and continue its usage.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
