Pros:

It is easy to use. It clears pimples easily; almost overnight. Every inexpensive.

Cons:

It started working the first few days but now it is causing me to have alot of little black heads and bumps on my face. Either it is working with my acne under my skin or an allergic reaction. I still have to use it a little longer to determine.

It works well to get rid of a pimple overnight.

Pros:

Duac works the quickest out of any acne cream I've ever tried. I used Differin gen .3% and it didn't work nearly as fast or efficiently as Duac. I love it!

Cons:

It dried my skin out horridly! It was red, flaky and hurt so I had to use it ever other day until it went away. I normally apply it every night. It WILL bleach anything it comes in contact with so be CAREFUL and let it dry!

I love it!!!!!

Pros:

Worked for the first month.

Cons:

Had terrible breakouts after a month.

I should have never started using this medicine, I had mild acne and it only made it worse. I did not purchase this medicine; my doctor gave me samples.

Pros:

I had amazing results within just a couple of weeks. It worked really well in conjunction with a nightly regimen of Differin.

Cons:

May dry out your skin a little. Also can stain bedding and clothes. Also, as with every other topical medication I've used, it eventually lost its effectiveness as my skin became acclimated.

Ask your dermatologist about Benzaclin coupled with Differin. Like anyone with acne knows, ANYTHING is worth trying at least once to reduce or eliminate this painful and embarrassing condition.

Pros:

works when you first start with it.
not like thick or nasty looking, feeling, or smelling.

Cons:

my body got so immune to it. i still use it every night, but it doesnt seem to do anything anymore! :[

benzaclin will most likely for sure work in the beginning, but the results seem to lessen quickl. deffinitely better for milder acne. most likely wont do a thing for severe ance.

Pros:

My Daughter, 14, had very beautiful skin up to the age of 14.. Hit 14 and the acne started. I think using makeup contributed. We spent $200 in different products. Nothing worked. Went to Dr and she prescribed this. In 1 week face is almost clear!

Cons:

Some dryness

Don't waste your $$ on Proactive and all the other products out there. Get this presription instead of wasting time and $$. Works quickly. You can also help yourself by not using makeup and taking care of your face - something teenagers don't take seriously until it is too late

Pros:

My skin is extremely clear overall. I get a pimple every once in a while but nothing like it used to be. I noticed a change in only a few days too.

Cons:

It's a bit expensive. It can also leave your skin a bit flaky on your first few days of using it.

Great product overall. Helps with blackheads, whiteheads, and especially those big painful red ones.
