Description
|
Adapalene is a topical retinoid primarily used in the treatment of acne and is also used (off-label) to treat keratosis pilaris as well as other skin conditions. It is currently marketed by Galderma under the trade names Differin in some countries, and Adaferin in India. [Wikipedia] |
Indication |
For the topical treatment of comedo, papular and pustular acne (acne vulgaris) of the face, chest or back. |
Pharmacology |
Adapalene is a chemically stable retinoid-like compound. Biochemical and pharmacological profile studies have demonstrated that adapalene is a modulator of cellular differentiation, keratinization, and inflammatory processes all of which represent important features in the pathology of acne vulgaris. |
Toxicity |
The acute oral toxicity of adapalene in mice and rats is greater than 10 mL/kg. Chronic ingestion of the drug may lead to the same side effects as those associated with excessive oral intake of Vitamin A. |
Affected Organisms |
• |
Humans and other mammals |
|
Biotransformation |
Metabolized mainly by O-demethylation, hydroxylation and conjugation, and excretion is primarily by the biliary route. |
Absorption |
Absorption of adapalene through human skin is low. Only trace amounts (<0.25 ng/mL) of parent substance have been found in the plasma of acne patients following chronic topical application of adapalene in controlled clinical trials |
Elimination |
Excretion appears to be primarily by the biliary route. |

Research Area: Endocrinology Biological Activity: Adapalene is a third-generation topical retinoid primarily used in the treatment of mild-moderate acne and is also used (off-label) to treat keratosis pilaris as well as other skin conditions. Adapalene is possibly more effective than tretinoin 0.025% gel in the treatment of acne vulgaris. [1] |
