Rosula vs. Rosanil vs. Plexion vs. Clenia

I could not be more confused!!

What is/are the difference(s) among these?? I've done some research, but I'm having trouble finding clear-cut descriptions of them and how they may or may not differ from every other one. From what I gather, all forms of Rosula have urea in them - is this correct? - and the others don't? All of them have cleansers, but some of them also have lotion forms, some of them cream forms, some of them gel forms, some of them medicated pads?? For all you veteran rosaceans, please shed some light on this for me! I think my derm prescribed me Rosula (brand), as a lotion (which is not the more common form of it, I take it?). I have not used any of these previously.

How do these products measure up? And please specify which form of medication (cleanser/lotion/gel/creams/pads) you're referring to, because I cannot keep them straight.

For those of you who have used more than one of the above, which did you find less drying/irritating?

Your input is appreciated, as I would very much like to understand the differences among these. Thank you in advance!!

I've only tried Plexion, which is a cream cleanser. It irritated my skin, but it's worth a try if you manage to get a sample from your derm.
