Guest guest Posted January 21, 2002 Report Share Posted January 21, 2002 I posted a few weeks ago asking if anyone had heard of Nicosyn. I have some new information about it. Nicosyn has now hit the shelves of many Pharmacies. W/out Insurance it costs like $30 a tube. With Insurance it obviously varies from subscriber to subscriber. Nicosyn is indicated for the treatment of " Acne Vulgaris, Acne cea, and Seborrheic Dermatitis " . It has the exact same amount of the exact same active ingredients as Plexion. (10% Sodium Sulphasetamide, 5% Sulfur) I'm assuming its got to be in a different base. Therefore it may cause less irritation than Plexion. For those of you who have tried Plexion but had to stop due to irritation Nicosyn may be a better choice (however Sulfur can also cause Irritation by itself. plus I dont know anything about the base its in, so it may not be any less irritating) , or those of you looking for something for a cea/Seb Derm combo, or someone with papular cea etc may want to consider giving this medication a try. Definitely not a cure, but possibly one small step closer Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
