After reading all of the posts here I'm fixing to give PC BHA another go (I tried it back in 2000 and it did nothing for me). Can I use the BHA at the same time as a retinoid (I use Tazorac) or do I have to alternate days? Using a BHA as well as a retinoid seems kind of strong to me ... or is that exactly what unbudge-able comedonal acne like mine needs?

I use a much weaker retinol product (Alpha Hydrox Retinol ResQ), and Paula's Choice 2% gel, and i use PC in the mornings, and the retinol at night, and I don't have any problems. My retinol is much weaker than prescription strength though, so you might have more irritation than me.
