Product Description

HOW TO USE

Benzoyl peroxide is topically applied once or twice a day to all acne-affected areas of the skin, and not just on individual pimples themselves.

When you start using benzoyl peroxide, first apply a small amount to one or two small test areas that you want to treat once a day, for 3 days, to see if there is discomfort or abnormal reaction to the medication. If you do not experience such a reaction, start using benzoyl peroxide as prescribed.

Do not get benzoyl peroxide in your eyes, nose, or mouth. If it does get into your eyes, wash your eyes with a generous amount of water and seek medical attention if there is any irritation. Do not use benzoyl peroxide on sunburned or windburned skin, or on open wounds.

Avoid the use of any products that may irritate your skin such as abrasive soaps, skin peeling products, irritating hair products, alcohol-containing skin products, cosmetics or soaps that dry the skin, medicated cosmetics), or sunlamps while using benzoyl peroxide. Using benzoyl peroxide simultaneously with these products may cause skin irritation.

Do not use other topical treatments on an area of skin for 1 hour before or after it has been treated with benzoyl peroxide, as this may reduce the efficacy of benzoyl peroxide.

Benzoyl peroxide may bleach clothes or hair.

During the first 3 weeks of using benzoyl peroxide, you may experience skin dryness or irritation. Ask your physician for the right skin products to reduce skin dryness or irritation. Improvement of acne is often seen quickly, but can sometimes take 4 to 6 weeks of treatment to become apparent. Rarely, acne may get worse before it gets better at the start of treatment. If your symptoms do not improve or get worse, contact your physician.

Benzoyl peroxide should not be used by children less than 12 years old, unless your physician instructs otherwise. Use and dosing in children less than 12 years old must be determined by the treating physician.

Use benzoyl peroxide exactly as prescribed by your physician. The prescribed dose of benzoyl peroxide may vary between patients. Similarly, the quantity of benzoyl peroxide per application, the number of applications per day, the time between doses, and the duration of treatment will depend on the severity of your acne. Do not change the amount of medication or the frequency of your applications without consulting your physician first, as a sudden increase in dosing may cause skin irritation. If you have any questions about the medication or the prescription, ask your physician or pharmacist.
