outlawimmortal 0 Share Posted June 1, 2003 Now that summer is here, I will find myself away from home more often and won't be able to use the benzamycin (5%bp, 3%erthroymcin) all the time because i can't refrigerate it. So i was wondering if it would be okay to use something that i cna bring with me in a tube that doesn'tneed to be refrigerated like the neutrogena stuff with 2.5% bp. Would there be a problem with just using this ocasionally when i can't take my other stuff with me? Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Adam20002 0 Share Posted June 1, 2003 The acne.org regimen actually uses 2.5% BP as a preference over and above a higher concentration. Maybe over the summer you could take it as an oppurtunity to try and the regimen seeing as you won't be able to use the benzamycin anyway ? Adam Quote Link to post Share on other sites
outlawimmortal 0 Author Share Posted June 2, 2003 well i just came back from genovese,duane reed,and waldbaums to look for the neutrogena on the spot acne treatment. i saw 2 of them one vanishing cream, the other tinted? Anyway the prices ranged from 6.79 to 6.99 in all three stores. I thought it was kinda expensive since the prescription stuff i use is about 20 bucks although it would be over 140 if i didn't have a plan. anyway i thought i remembered seeing the neutrogena for like 4.99 a few months back in another store and so i have decided to wait. Still i am skeptical as to how the neutrogena would be more effective than my 140 plus dollar prescription if they have the same stuff in it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
