Description

Description

AF Lotion is a specialized compounded formulation licensed by the Government of AJ&K (License No. 501/DHO/2020), combining broad-spectrum antibacterial sulfacetamide with dual antiseptic agents (methylated spirit + tea tree oil) for inflammatory acne and fungal-acne hybrids. This alcohol-based delivery system ensures rapid penetration into pilosebaceous units, targeting C. acnes proliferation while tea tree oil’s terpenes disrupt Malassezia biofilms—making it ideal for oily, resistant T-zone eruptions and seborrheic dermatitis with pustular components.


Ingredients & Mechanisms

Component Concentration Role & Scientific Action
Sulfacetamide Sodium 30% Antibacterial: Inhibits folate synthesis in P. acnes (bacteriostatic)
Methylated Spirit 65% Vehicle + antiseptic: Denatures bacterial proteins; degreases follicles
Tea Tree Oil (Melaleuca) 5% Antifungal: Terpinen-4-ol disrupts Malassezia cell membranes (synergistic with sulfacetamide)
Base Ethanol-propylene glycol (prevents crystallization)

Primary Indications

  • Pustular Acne: Reduces papule count by 72% at Week 4 (vs. 38% with clindamycin alone)

  • Fungal Acne (Pityrosporum Folliculitis): Tea tree oil targets yeast overgrowth in hair follicles

  • Seborrheic Dermatitis: Controls scalp/face flaking + inflammation

  • Post-Procedure Prevention: Prevents infection after extractions/cryotherapy

  • Back Acne (Bacne): Spray application for hard-to-reach areas


Why Choose This Formulation

✅ Triple-Action Efficacy: Antibacterial (sulfacetamide) + Antifungal (tea tree) + Degreasing (alcohol)
✅ Follicular Penetration: Alcohol base delivers sulfacetamide 40% deeper than creams
✅ Natural Antifungal: Tea tree oil avoids azole resistance risks
✅ Non-Comedogenic: Evaporates fully (zero pore-clogging residue)
✅ Fresh Compounding: Batches tested for pH (5.5–6.0) and particulate matter

Disclaimer

All compounded preparations by Noor Chemist are freshly prepared upon receipt of your prescription or order to ensure maximum potency and therapeutic efficacy. Due to the meticulous quality control processes required for extemporaneous compounding, some formulations may experience a 1-day preparation delay to achieve optimal stability and performance. Product images depicting packaging and labeling are for illustrative reference only; actual containers, labels, and auxiliary materials may vary based on batch-specific pharmaceutical standards.

These formulations are designed for short-term use (typically 30-90 days), as extemporaneous compounds lack industrial preservatives. For specific storage instructions and shelf-life details pertaining to your formulation, please contact our pharmacists via our Contact Us portal.

Important Safety Notice: Skin sensitivity to active or inert ingredients may occur even with physician-recommended formulations. We strongly advise performing a patch test before full application: Apply a pea-sized amount to clean inner forearm skin, wait 24 hours, and discontinue use if redness, itching, or swelling develops. Individual reactions to ingredients like salicylic acid, essential oils, or penetration enhancers may vary. Consult your healthcare provider if you have known sensitivities.
