Pros:

I got a free sample from the dermatologist after reading positive reviews and requesting it.

Cons:

It did nothing for my needle size pimples except make them BIGGER!

I only applied this on my face twice. Once at night and then again the next morning. Thank goodness I didn't put this on my entire face and only put it on a small part. Anyway, I was hoping it would reduce the size of my tiny whiteheads that I have had for a month but it made them worse. They got red and angry. I even got a new BIG pimple right next to them. My skin didn't respond well to this drug at all and I will never put it on my face again. I am sticking to Proactiv and Zinc.

Pros:

Turned severe acne into mild
Stopped the spread and controls large breakouts

Cons:

Burning, numbness and swelling during the first 2 weeks of use.

If you can suck it up the first two weeks and stick with it, it's a good product.

Pros:

It cleared up any Black heads or white heads on the nose IMMEDIATELY! i still have a VERY clear nose. It also reduces the size of cysts.

Cons:

Dry peeling skin. a cyst may appear out of nowhere.

It clears up any small random pimples but takes longer for yhe bigger ones to go away helps the best with light to moderate acne. But it really does dry up your skin which isnt good for me since i have naturally DRY ASS skin"( But try it it just may work for you..

Pros:

Dermatologist recommended. Easy to get ahold of. Cleared up my acne pretty nicely the first time i started using it.

Cons:

stopped working after a while. dried out my face

this product worked the first time i used it for a couple months. next time my skin started breaking out, i tried to use it, and saw no results. not sure if i got used to it or what. plus it is expensive. but i think for some people it can really work. give it a try

Pros:

Derm Recommended

Cons:

We went to our local CVS to fill a 45gm tube of Duac and a 45gm tube of Differin for my 12 year old daughter. New RX from our Dermatologists

The Retail price of Duac was $204! Retail for Differin was $200! I could not even believe it and I used to be in the pharma biz so to be shocked by an Rx price it really has to be expensive. Everybody is listing what their costs are, I can only assume that everyone has a Rx co-pay insurance plan. We have an HSA plan as I am self-employed so I really watch our healthcare costs. Even with our BCBS Anthem Discount for Rx, our out of pocket expense was going to be $150 for each product. Not reasonable at all! I called our Derm and she switched us to generic
