Directions for use

This product is for generalised all- over application to the skin. Apply it three times daily or as often as needed.

  • Before using the 500g bottle, turn the top of the pump dispenser anti-clockwise to unlock it. After unlocking the first time, you will need to press down the pump dispenser several times to prime the pump before any product is dispensed.
  • Gently smooth Adex gel over and around all dry and inflamed skin areas. For best results, use a few gentle strokes to smooth the gel across the skin in the same direction as hair growth. If necessary, allow time for any excess to soak in. Do not rub the skin vigorously.
  • If you are using other topically applied products, any instructions supplied with the other product should be followed to allow adequate time for absorption before applying Adex gel. The time allowed should normally be around 30 minutes for topical corticosteroids product and spreading it to areas that do not need it.
  • Carry on using Adex gel for as long as necessary- whether that may be only occasionally, e.g. during flares, or continuously if the added anti- inflammatory action is beneficial. If there is no improvement within 2 to 4 weeks, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice.

Side effects 

Although emollients are generally very helpful in treating dry skin conditions, they can sometimes be associated with temporary tingling, itching or stinging, especially where the skin is broken or scratched. Regular use of emollients can help to restore damaged skin, so occurrence of such symptoms may subside after a few days of emollient treatment. However, if such symptoms occur and are troublesome or persist for more than a few minutes, after application of Adex gel, or do not subside once the gel has been used for several days, stop using the gel, and if necessary, consult your doctor, nurse or pharmacist for advice.
