| Cons | Did nothing to clear acne, burned |
|---|---|
| Bottom line | I do not have sensitive skin - I've gotten peels, microdermabrasion, used tazoretene, retinols and many drying topicals, but for whatever reason, when I used sodium sulfacetimide products, it burned my skin. I stupidly continued to use this, thinking that it was just an initial reaction and that my face was getting used to it, but for me, it did nothing but burn my face. Forgetting these side effects, I then tried using it again, years later, and it did nothing. |

| Pros | clears face not drying |
|---|---|
| Cons | initial breakout while clearing pores |
| Bottom line | I use the gel since I can't put oils on my sensitive skin. This stuff works really well. It is a healthier alternative to oral antibiotics. At first it will break you out a bit but after that you will be mostly clear. I've been using this for about a year and the acne is mostly gone. I use another stronger perscription for spot treating cysts. |

| Pros | No peeling, itching, etc. A great alternative to oral antibiotics! |
|---|---|
| Cons | Did not eliminate acne completely. There was an initial breakout period where things got worse but thats the way it goes... |
| Bottom line | This is a GREAT product. I dont want to jinx myself by saying so (because then I think somehow it will stop working) but its really helped me. I had a sudden break out of cystic acne at 27 and I didnt even want to leave the house. The first doctor I went to rudely asserted that my skin would never clear up without antibiotics and a retinoid. I am really hesitant to take oral antibiotics so I went to another doctor. This combined with a 4% BP wash has really helped my skin. I still get about 1 zit a week but Im fine with that compared to what it was. Doctor just prescribed me a 5% BP wash instead and thinks this will get everything under control. Heres hoping! |

| Pros | A nice creamy formula that has pretty much abolished my cystic and comedonal acne :) No medicine smell (or at least it is not strong to me) |
|---|---|
| Cons | Drying for the first few days but drying does subside Must make sure to avoid eyes and mucosal surfaces since it is an antibacterial. |
| Bottom line | Compared to some of the facial washes I was purchasing for my face, this item is comparable if not cheaper! I am |

| Pros | Really good this stuff works!! I have been using it with Epiduo & Solodyn for almost 2 weeks and the results are amazing!! I used to have about 12 pimples (more new ones everyday!) now I have about 3 with no new ones! Even the dark spots are fading! |
|---|---|
| Cons | I had some drying for about a week & 1/2, but the dryness is mostly gone now. Especially if you moisturize, the dryness isn't a problem. I don't really even notice a sulfur smell at all. And it's prescription. |
| Bottom line | This stuff is great!!! I had no side effects and my acne started clearing up almost immediately! It's a miracle lol because I have had acne for a good 2 years and nothing OTC worked for me! The only downfall would be it could be exspensive, but my family's insurance covered it. |
