Freederm Gel is a skin treatment for inflamed pimples and spots.
The active ingredient in this product is nicotinamide. This ingredient has anti-inflammatory properties, and treats pimples and spots by reducing swelling, redness and tenderness.
Nicotinamide is not an antibiotic, it is related to an essential vitamin in our diet (Vitamin B3).
