Pros I used Acnomel cake as a teenager inthe 70's and it was excellent! Dried up pimples overnight. I still had some left that my teenage daughter tried and she said it worked best of anything.
Cons I wish they still made the cake form. It worked far better than the tube I can now order from Safeway pharmacy.
Bottom line Please bring back the cake! You'll have a huge market for it!!

Pros Gave me my life back in combination with proactiv cleanser and lotion then use Acnomel.
Cons I wish I had found this sooner.
Bottom line I spent hundreds of dollars on acne products from prescription to drug store including Differin gel which did nothing for me. This product is even better than persa gel which was my go to acne product. It definitely is less irritating and drying still getting the job done. I wear 0 makeup now! YAY!
Price paid $8.00

Pros Acnomel was a great acne treatment until recently
Cons The tubes labeled 30% more are actually just a watered down product and its effectiveness is greatly decreased.
Bottom line I hope they change it back.

Pros excellent quality and easy to use....I have used Acnomel since the early 70's... There also used to be Acnomel in cake form which I loved, but the company discontinued it.... Acnomel is hard to find ... but Rite Aid, and Walgreens have it
Cons none that I can think of... I got to a point where I needed extra help , and added a well known system to my treatment.
Bottom line A wonderful product that works ... I still wish the cake form was available too though.

Pros I have used Acnomel since I was a teenager and that is many moons ago and at my age I stil use it. Sometimes I have a hard time locating it but I keep trying until I find a place that carries it.
Cons I have nothing but good things to say about Acnomel.
Bottom line If anyone has any pimples at all I suggest that they try Acnomel and I am most sure they will keep using it.

Pros Affordable, easy to use, works great as a foundation under makeup and really works - fast!
Cons None that I have experienced
Bottom line I am 41 and have been battling acne since my early teens. I have tried almost every over the counter drug with minimal results. I apply Acnomel all over my face and put an extra dose directly on a pimple. Within a day or two, the pimple is gone. Acnomel is fantastic. My dermatologist asked me where I purchased it so he could recommend it to his patients.

Pros Well after trying just about everything, short of Accutane, and going thru sev. different Dermatologists, I found something (randomly) in the drug store. The box said it was milder to the skin than Benzyol Perx. and I was desparate badly broken out
Cons Only negative the sulphur smell. Its worth overlooking the smell though--this stuff works.
Bottom line In amy in my mid-forties, and I have been fighting super oily skin, breakouts, cystic acne since my teens. I have been to several different dermatologists, and have had numerous rx for rosacea and acne. I was alway super oily, w/large pores, in the t-zone, and flaking every where else. I was at the point where I was once again breaking out (badly) w/each monthly cycle (hormones?) and it would take two to three weeks for the previous months breakout to clear up, before I broke out again...so I was never clear. Had large pores and black heads on my nose and chin. I stumbled upon this at the drug store and decided to try it (it was cheap, $7.99). Within a week my nose was smooth (no large pores) and blackheads all but gone. IF YOU HAVE SUPER OILY SKIN (LIKE ME) THIS IS THE PRODUCT TO USE!!! Very drying on cheeks and around mouth...but a miracle worker on the t-zone. I dab on break outs only on cheeks, but wear it like a foundation at night on t-zone. In am skin smoooth &not red!

Pros Clears up pimples in a matter of a day or two.
Cons I didn't find it earlier in my life.
Bottom line I have been using Acnomel since 1983. It is by far the most effective acne medication I have ever used. The price is affordable and I would highly reccommend this product.
Price paid $9.00

Pros I just started using this product and I find it's great! I find it a lot less irritating than BP, and much more effective. If you use a moisturizer it's a lot milder on my skin.
Cons It's a bit smelly, but not at a point that I feel others can smell it on me, haha!
Bottom line I will definitely use this product regularly.
