RENOVA STORAGE:
Store renova cream at room temperature between 59 and 86 degrees
F (15 and 25 degrees C). Do not freeze. Keep renova out of the
reach of children.
USES:
Renova is used to improve the appearance of the skin by reducing
fine lines and wrinkles, reducing roughness and improving coloration.
It can also be used to treat acne.
SIDE EFFECTS OF RENOVA:
You may experience mild redness or stinging, itching, burning,
skin scaling, peeling and dry skin the first several weeks as
your body adjusts to the medication. If any of these effects continue
or become severe, discontinue use and notify your doctor.
HOW TO USE:
This medication is for use on the face as directed, usually once
a day at bedtime. Apply a pea-size amount of renova cream to clean,
dry skin on the face being careful to avoid the eyes, nostrils
and mouth. Cover affected area lightly. Wash hands after use.
Do not use Renova more often than prescribed or in large amounts.
It will not give you faster or better results but will increase
the risk of side effects. Do not use on sunburn or eczema or other
serious skin conditions. Effects of this medication will be gradual
with most improvement seen in the first 6 months of continued
therapy. If renova cream is used for acne the condition may worsen
at first, then improve.
PRECAUTIONS:
Before taking Renova tell your doctor if you have any pre-existing
skin disorders or if you have any allergies. Renova increases
your sensitivity to the sun so limit exposure and avoid sun lamps.
Use a sunscreen and wear protective clothing when outdoors. Renova
should be used only when clearly needed during pregnancy. Discuss
the risks and benefits with your doctor. It is unknown if this
drug is excreted into breast milk so consult with your doctor
before breast-feeding.
MISSED DOSE OF RENOVA:
If you miss a dose, use it as soon as remembered; do not use if
it is almost time for the next dose. Instead, skip the missed
dose and resume your usual dosing schedule. Do not "double-up"
the dose to catch up.
DRUG INTERACTIONS:
Tell your doctor of any nonprescription or prescription medication
you may take including isotretinoin, amiodarone, tetracycline
or quinolone antibiotics, sulfa-drugs or phenothiazines as they
increase skin sensitivity to the sun. Also minoxidil and any skin
medication, soaps, cleansers, cosmetics, astringents or any facial
products that may be drying or irritating (e.g., alcohol-containing
facial products. Benzoyl peroxide should not be applied at the
same time as this medication.

Renova is not a cosmetic. It is to be used in conjunction with
a comprehensive skin care and sun avoidance program.
