[Fred Q]

Has anyone switched from differin cream/gel to epiduo? How did it go? Was there more irritation?

I've been using Differin cream for about 4 months now, and its done a very good job and I am happy with it. I just saw my derm and he said my face looked great but there was room for some improvement if I wanted it and wrote me a script for Epiduo. He said that based on my response with the differin cream that this should zap all acne as we know it.

I have sensitive skin and the differin cream is tolerable but it is still a bit irritating. My doctor didn't seem to have much to say about this other than it shouldn't be too much more irritating and that I could handle it.

I've used both and I did think that epiduo was a bit more irritating for my skin but did a better job of clearing it. It is LESS irritating than standard BP alone in my opinion but that is just from my own personal experience. Good luck!
