Dapsone + Adapalene1 is an antibiotic which stops the bacteria from producing folic acid, a nutrient required for bacterial multiplication.Dapsone + Adapalene2 is a form of vitamin A which prevents accumulation of the sebum (skin’s natural oil), unblocks the pores and allows natural exfoliation of the outer layers of skin.
