    Classification of Moderate Acne:-

    • Non Inflammatory Comedones

    • Inflammatory Lesions with few Pustules

    • Nodules and Cysts

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Inflammatory Lesions with few Pustules
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Inflammatory Lesions with few Pustules". This classification of moderate acne indicates the presence of inflammatory lesions, which are characterized by redness, swelling, and the formation of pus-filled pustules. This suggests that the acne is more severe than non-inflammatory comedones but less severe than nodules and cysts, which are deeper and more painful lesions.

    Oral Isotretinoin should be avoided in pregnancy because it is known to cause birth defects or abnormalities in the developing fetus. It has been classified as a teratogenic substance, meaning it has the potential to interfere with normal fetal development and cause malformations or other adverse effects. Therefore, it is crucial for women of childbearing age to use effective contraception while taking this medication and to avoid becoming pregnant for a certain period after discontinuing its use.

    Correct Answer
    A. Azelaic Acid
    Explanation
    Azelaic acid is known to produce hypopigmentation. It is a topical medication used to treat various skin conditions, including acne and rosacea. It works by inhibiting the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color. This can result in lightening of the skin and the development of hypopigmented patches. Benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, and oral antibiotics are commonly used to treat acne but do not typically cause hypopigmentation. Therefore, the correct answer is Azelaic Acid.
