okay, i'm going to try to regimen, but instead of buying the stuff from acne.org, i have it already, but its different. i have a cetaphil cleanser and moisturizer and am using benzaclin as the benzoyl peroxide. would this be okay?

As long as the benzaclin is 2.5% benzoyl peroxide that will be absolutely fine. Cetaphil products are great to use with the Regimen. Good luck!

nope, benzaclin is 5%. i've been on and off benzaclin for almost 3 years now, and it has dried out my skin a lot

I'm not surprised 5% has dried your skin out. If you want to do the regimen it would be best to try to get hold of a 2.5% benzoyl peroxide because the regimen's quite irritating for your skin even at that concentration.
