Deborah, California Jul 27th, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: It is clear so I can use durning the day under make-up. There is no smell. Doesn't dry my skin. I can tell already that it making huge difference. Cons: I haven't been using too long to find any cons yet. I'm just hoping I don't become immune and/or resistant to it as it is an antibiotic Bottom Line: My medical wouldn't pay for Klaron, so I payed full price out of pocket--$138 dollars. However, the bottle is very large and you only need a nickle size amount to spread all over your face. I really like this stuff so far. I would do just about anything to get clear skin, so I actually didn't mind paying the amount I did as I can tell it is doing wonders in only a week!

JC, Illinois Jul 17th, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Clears skin, helps picked pimples heal faster, doesn't bleach clothes, no smell Cons: generic brand comes in bottle that leaks when you try and travel with it Bottom Line: I have tried almost everything for those under the skin breakouts and nothing has ever worked. I have been dealing with this since I was 10 years old and am now 25. I would actually miss out on trips to the beach or any other activity that could cause my makeup to come off. I tried this medication after seeing it on this sight and I finally can let people see me with out makeup. One side of my face was always red and broken out and now it is almost flawless. I had no reaction to this medication. My skin got better right away. I can not say enough about it. I combined it with the proactive wash and every now and then a saciylic acid astringint. The bottom line is though that this medication is what made the difference. Everytime i use it I pray it keeps working bc it seems to good to be true.

Anne, New York, NY Jul 13th, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: I use the Sulfacet-R version and it works consistently well. It clears up pimples without leaving scars, but it is important not to bother the acne; just apply the lotion. It is not meant to heal acne scars, so I would use another product for that. Cons: There are no cons to report. Bottom Line: OTC products did not work for me, so my dermatologist prescribes this and it is very valuable... a little bit goes a long way. It is not covered by my insurance and I pay $60.00 USD, and it is well worth it. Recommended: Yes Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

cloud king 50, boston, MA Jul 9th, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: dries up everything....you can feel the change in your skin within a few days Cons: using with tretinoin so i of course got the dreaded breakout...also on minocycline 100mg which works really well against inflammation... Bottom Line: you grow out of acne... my brother had it for 3 years and it just went away with no meds.....you'll get through it and so will I.

C, CA Jul 7th, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Well i guess the pro is people on the site claim how well it works Cons: I couldnt wait to try it...I got a script had it filled and then after using it had a allergic reation! Was crazy with itch.. Bottom Line: So dissapointed that I am allergic to it! Now I have a whole big bottle that i paid for just sitting here...Well I have to tell ya when you start using this PLEASE use just a tiny bit to see if you have any allergic reaction to it!

Alyssa, Boston Jun 11th, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Bottom Line: I have been on tetracyclin, retin-a, i've tried pro active, wash my face everyday... and these stupid whiteheads don't go away. I was loosing hope!!! I went to the derm again, and he gave me this stuff. I've been using it for three days and my face is significantly clearer!! All the acne is drying up, even those annoying little whiteheads. The great thing about it is that it doesn't dry or irritate your face like retinoinds, and it has a tint that blends into your skin and actually covers up red marks. Great product, I recommend it to anyone, I didn't pay anything because I have insurance but the generic is like sixty dollars or something!!!

Ali, Brick, NJ May 7th, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Sulfacet-R works great for acne and is a topical antibiotic. I have used it for many years but it is very expensive without a prescription. Cons: Expense is about $75.00 without a prescription Bottom Line: I do not currently have any insurance and need this product for my skin. Is there any way I can buy Sulfacet-R literally without a prescription? I don't understand why the FDA will now allow this topical solution without a prescription. It is not a controlled substance by any means, and I use it as a foundation because it comes with a color blend tube so that you can choose your desired skin color.

New Me, Northern, NH Mar 1st, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Easy to apply! Goes on clear and dries right away. You don't need much. Cons: One more medication, but anything that works at this point isn't really a con! Bottom Line: Good stuff! I wish I had started this a very long time ago! It works so well. The red spots are disappearing! Two feet from the mirror I can't even tell I even have had bad skin! Oil production is WAY down (but that may be due to the Spiro). Spiro, Yasmin, Sulfacetamide (PM) and Tazorac(AM)....WONDERFUL COMBO!

Jenn, Edmonton Alberta Feb 25th, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: It doesn't leave your skin feeling tight and red and irritated like Benzoyle Peroxide does. It's really gentle and even tones down the look of red marks. Goes on smooth too. Cons: A LITTLE bit drying the first week, but once my skin adapted to it, it was fine. Bottom Line: I am currently using the Canadian version which is Sulfacte - R, so it's a little different from Klaron but generally is the same thing. I have been using it for about 3 weeks now and so far, its a WAY better alternative to BP. BP just made my skin way too red and too dry and irritated. Honestly, I felt like a freak whenever I left my house because of how red and irritated I was. I heard about this stuff on this site and begged my doctor to give me a prescription. So far it has been working fairly well, I still break out but it WAS just my period week, and I usually get a breakout before then. It's helped a lot and since I've only been using it for three weeks and it usually takes about 2 months to see a products full potential,I'm gonna stick on it. so far its the best thing ive used, give it a try if you have mild/somewhat moderate acne.

Max, Columbus, Ohio Feb 20th, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Smooth clear gel that goes on and dries fast. It also is great substitute for BP. It is a step above BP but not as irratating. It also can be used twice a day with no irratation. Cons: Price, if your insurance doesnt cover it the cost is around 100 USD but with insurance it should be around 20 USD. It also can leave a shiny appearance to the skin when dry, to beat that use a moisturizer. Bottom Line: This is a great substitute for going to accutance. I had moderate acne with occasional cysts along my jaw line. This cleared me up in around two to two and a half months. It worked amazingly for around 6-8 months then started to decrease in the potency. I started to get acne again but only mild. I went off it for around two months and went back on it. and a month later I am as clear as I was before. I would highly recommend it to people who are at their last resort. because unlike a lot of the stuff on here it accually works. Dont fool around with stuff like differn or retin-a go to klaron it is safe and mild on the skin and really works. Just try it before you go onto accutane.
