Nicomide is a type of pharmaceutical drug that is primarily used in the treatment of acne and rosacea. It is a combination of nicotinamide, zinc, copper, and folic acid.

Composition[edit | edit source]

Nicomide contains four main active ingredients:

  • Nicotinamide: Also known as niacinamide, this is a form of vitamin B3 that is used for its anti-inflammatory properties. It can help reduce the redness and swelling associated with acne and rosacea.
  • Zinc: This is a mineral that is known for its ability to help heal the skin and reduce inflammation. It can also help regulate the production of oil in the skin, which can help prevent acne.
  • Copper: This is another mineral that is used for its anti-inflammatory properties. It can also help promote the production of collagen and elastin, which can help improve the health and appearance of the skin.
  • Folic Acid: This is a type of vitamin B that is used for its ability to help promote the health and repair of skin cells.
