bec, oc, ca Sep 7th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: 1. It works. 2. Completely nonirritating. Cons: Only available by prescription Bottom Line: I'm in my mid-40's and still plagued by adult acne as well as seborrheaic dermatitis (really bad dandruff). In the past, I've used benzoyl peroxide (discolors my clothes, not particularly effective, drying); salicylic acid in alcohol (rebound oiliness of the skin); retin-A (a low concentration gel worked for many years, but when I started back on it again as a cream, my skin became sensitive to it. Now, even a small quantity causes itching, redness, swelling, pain, and increased friability of the skin). In addition, I finally determined after a number of years that my ketoconazole shampoo for the seborrhoea was aggravating the acne. The dermatologist my doctor referred me to prescribed Klaron lotion, since it is good for both acne and seborrhoea. Wow! It's completely nonirritating, nonstaining, nongreasy - and I can see results in less than 24 hours. I use it sporadically, several times a week. I've gone from routinely having 10-15 pimples in various stages, to 1-2 at most, an Recommended: Yes Usage: bec has used this item for about a year.

Cons: expensive. Didn't work for me. Bottom Line: It didn't work for me and it was expensive. But if your insurance can get it for you on the cheap it is worth a try.

Pros: Great stuff. Seems to be working. Using it with Differin & Monodox. Cons: Don't know which prescription is doing it, but face is dry and sunburnt easily in 10 minutes. Bottom Line: Get it if you need it. Recommended: Yes Usage: Emily has used this item for a few weeks. Price Paid: 5.00 Acne severity: moderate Was this comment helpful?

Sarah, NJ Sep 1st, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Cleared up my acne when NOTHING Else would. Cons: nothing. Bottom Line: I paid $7.50 for a bottle of this stuff. Let me tell you...I have tried EVERYTHING to clear up the constant pimples around my mouth. I have a strict cleansing, deep cleaning, exfoliating, masks, moisturizing, routine every day and NOTHING would work. I tried some of the most expensive brands from Sephora, C.O. Bigelow, even Neiman Marcus. Even classic Neutrogena and Clean & Clear would not work for my pimples. Well, after getting sooo incredibly fed up I went on an internet search and found this review board & the incrediable reviews for Klaron. I'm on birth control & really didnt want to take an oral med that may mess with my BC and possibly my body in general. So after reading the reviews of topical Klaron, I brought the info to my derma & said, "GIVE TO TO ME". *ALL MY ACNE HAS CLEARED UP*. AMAZING. It's cheaper than anything else i've used. I guess my health care is pretty good and it covers it. I use it twice a day and the results are REMARKABLE. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED***** Recommended: Yes Usage: Sarah has used this item for a few weeks.

anonymous, Indiana Aug 24th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: I use the pads and they make my skin feel so clean. Quickly clears existing acne and prevents future breakouts. This is like a wonder drug for acne. Cons: none Bottom Line: works fast and helps a ton. definitely worth it Recommended: Yes Usage: anonymous has used this item for about a week.

Katie R., Tampa, Florida Aug 21st, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Quickly dries up existing acne and kicks in to prevent new breakouts. At most, waiting to see if it works might take up to 4 weeks. Cons: Might dry out skin initially. The smell isn't pleasant but dissapates quickly. Bottom Line: When other treatments like Benzaclin stopped working for me and even trying things like Differin - this worked great and cleared up my breakouts quickly. I do have to use more moisturizer each day but it is worth it. Recommended: Yes Usage: Katie R. has used this item for about a month.

NL, Pennsylvania Aug 13th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: This medication worked really well for me in the beginning...it took away the redness and eliminated breakouts Cons: loses effectiveness over time Bottom Line: If you have mild to moderate acne this should work well for you in combination with an oral antibiotic and mild face wash. At first it was fabulous and eliminated breakouts entirely. Now I feel that my skin has become immune to the antibiotic so its time to change my regimen. Good luck everyone Recommended: Yes Price Paid: 25.00 Acne severity: moderate Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

MJ, Chicago, IL Aug 12th, 2008 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Cleared up larger breakouts, No side effects Cons: Still have minor breakouts, cost $100 without insurance Bottom Line: About 75% of my acne is gone, expect in a few stubborn spots around my cheeks. Even though I slather this on religiously every night I still see an occasional small pimple here and there. No side effects. Recommended: Yes Usage: MJ has used this item for about a month.
