Pros:

Not sure, since I just started using it.

Cons:

Makes my skin quite red when I apply it (at night).

Am using this now that doc took me off of Doryx, and am also using Differin, which is working well, so not sure if I even want to stay on the Duac. What I've been doing is applying the Duac only to spots on my face where I know I typically tend to have issues (i.e. jawline and one of my cheeks.) Otherwise not sure if this is one of those meds that makes your skin get worse before it gets better, because if it is, I have already been through that for the Differin and do NOT want to have to do it all over again for this!

Pros:

It's not very greasy, so you don't get that heavy, clogged feeling. It seems to make the redness lessen.

Cons:

My doctor told me to be very patient with this product. She said to use it for at least 2 months before I could see definitive results. You can't overexpose the medicated skin to the sun for very long, and, as it's summer, it bums me out.

I don't know if it will work for me in the long run yet, but right now, it's making the redness and swelling go down a bit.

Pros:

not a scent, doesn't sting, but it makes acne less aggitated!

Cons:

doesn't clear acne fully!

It just dries up your spots to make them look less red and less furious, but doesn't get rid of it! though, I have just begun!

Pros:

easy to dispense, doesn't smell like anything, not a greasy feeling, works fast

Cons:

your skin seems to become immune to it.

The doctor prescribed this for my brother but it never worke on him so i started using it. It seemed to start clearing the first night i used it. I used more than the peasized amount because i thougfht that was stupid. I didn't put i just on my pimples i spread it all over my problem areas. (forehead, chin, and nose) Sometimes i feel like my skin is becoming immune to it, so i'll rotate and use another cheaper 5% benzoyl peroxide zit cream. Overall i'm pretty pleased. It may just not work for some people. I have very mild acne (some redness, bumps, and the occasional breakout)

Pros:

Wow- I have only used this product for 3 days and I am extremely pleased with how quickly it has cleared my face. My derm suggested I use Cetaphyl cleanser and Duac for the day, and Epiduo at night. So far so good......

Cons:

My only complaint is the dryness. Must use a really good oil free moisturizer with it.

I am really pleased with how fast this product has worked for me! I hope it keeps working. I also got this for free- a full size tube. My derm gave me a card to give to the pharmacy.

Pros:

Clears up Acne

Cons:

Leaves face red and tender...and it feels greasy...and hurts.

I don't know...I used it for a while, and it worked, but then it started to turn my face under my eyes bright red...I couldn't even apply my moisturizer because my face hurt so bad there. If you have tough skin, go for it, but if it starts to turn your skin red, stop using it, because the redness will only get worse and more painful...

Pros:

Works and fast.
Gets rid of moderate mild acne like a charm

Cons:

Drying and flaking, but no burning or redness.

This stuff is amazing. In one week mym doerate forehead a cne already had started ot really noticeably diminish. Works great. Although it is flaknig and drying, youll need a good mousturizer. And whenyou get rid of the spots and you have 'scales" (its not THAT bad) make sure to exfoliate it and get the gunk out and mousturize mousturize. But, tihs stuff WORKS.
