| Pros: | There are none. |
| Cons: | This medication has caused me to have frequent bowel movements. It causes scaly ear cysts that pop every 4 days. In addition to all these side effects, I also have severe constipation problems and consistent farts in my AP US HISTORY class. |
| Bottom Line: | Bottom line is this product is a piece of cuck. |
| Recommended: | No |

| Pros: | It seems to work for other people! |
| Cons: | For me, my skin is just too sensitive :( I used a very tiny bit (less than half a finger tip) on my skin on the first night, by the next evening my skin had bubbled and blistered up and is red, raw and very painful. |
| Bottom Line: | If you have sensitive skin I'd advise doing a patch test behind your ear first.
I paid £7.40 standard prescription charge so it wasn't too expensive at least. |
| Recommended: | No |

| Pros: | clears up quickly. doesn't leave a gross smell. goes on smoothly. my insurance covers it so it is very cheap for me. |
| Cons: | make sure to wear sunscreen because your face burns easier. none other really. maybe a little dryness but read the bottom line for my explanation. |
| Bottom Line: | i have ALWAYS struggled with acne since i hit puberty. i tried EVERYTHING at the drug stores and proactiv didnt work and neither did anything else. i've been going to a dermatologist because nothing worked!!! i was aggravated beyond belief! i'm a 19 year old girl and i'm feeling more confident with my face now.
what i use now:
*clean with a neutrogena wave- the shine free, regular, and exfoliating pads (i alternate the pads so it doesn't kill my face)
*duac gel
*retin-a micro 0.1%
*solodyn antibiotic pill
even though it seems like a lot, my face got pretty bad.. actually, it was pretty dang bad, when i didn't take care of it. it's sooo much better now! the duac is a HUUUUGE part of it because when i don't have it, my face doesn't look as good :) RECOMMENDED!!!! |

| Pros: | This product works just as it should, my acne has gotten severely better and continues to stay that way. |
| Cons: | In my area this product costs about $90 for a tube. |
| Bottom Line: | If you are a "name-brand" person, this will be great for you. If not, Benza Clin is the same product but due to its off brand stature, its about one-third of the price. |
| Recommended: | Yes |
| Price Paid: | 90.00 |
