Question

I've been prescribed actame c face wash, but I can't seem to find it at any nearby pharmacies. Do you have any suggestions for an alternative? I'm really keen to know what would work similarly, as I'm unsure what to use instead.

As an alternative to Actame C face wash, consider using a face wash containing salicylic acid (around 0.5-2%) and aloe vera or tea tree oil, such as Cetaphil Salicylic Acid Face Wash, Neutrogena Salicylic Acid Acne Wash, or Himalaya Neem Face Wash, which can help with acne, inflammation, and skin soothing.
