Pros:

It clears skin up pretty fast by drying out the big nasty pimples and they get better almost overnight.

Cons:

dry, flaky skin and when i put it on my upper lip and chin, it made it almost orangish which was really wierd i might have just put too much.

i used to have acne all over my forehead and benzaclin cleared it up fast so i haven't had a zit there in over 2 months. right now im using 2.5% BP on my chin and upper lip because it's less irritating.

Pros:

Goes on smoothly, has worked well so far

Cons:

Seems to not work as well over time

I started using Duac and really loved it at first, my acne was pretty bad but it cleared up beautifully. I just moved from LA to San Diego and have been using Duac for the last 7 months, and am suffering from my first really bad breakout since I started the medication. I've been using Duac liberally but it has made no difference. Works best when coupled with proactiv's sulfur mask (I use it as an overnight spot treatment)

Pros:

-Clearer skin
-less oil
-still working and it s been over a year
-reduces size of pimple sooner

Cons:

-Dry skin
-Takes about 3 weeks to see improvement
-slight redness
-flaking
-didnt fully clear my skin

It worked and is still working pretty good and its already been over a year. I have suffered from mild to moderate acne for about 4 years now...Im 17 by the way...anywho i was prescribed this duac gel by my doc and when i started using it my skin became unbearably dry and flaky and my skin also became red it did help with some of my acne so i stuck with it ...soon enough i realized that the moisturizer i was using was no good soo i ditched that and began using cerave in conjuction with EVOO and Jojoba oil my flakes went away along with the redness now my skin is perfectly fine and the duac is still working (Athough i would prefer my skin to be completely clear :/ ) i would reccomend using this if you have mild to moderate acne cuz in my opinion it does work also try cerave if you have dry sensitive skin its AMAZINGGGGGGG!:) P.s. it was 50$ with my insurance

Pros:

Clears up acne very quickly, and reduces the size of pores.

Cons:

Makes skin dry and somewhat itchy. It doesnt do anything for preexisting scars. I dont know if it's just me, but it doesnt wear well under my makeup.

I havent had problems with acne in the past, but recently I have started to break out pretty bad. My doctor prescribed me Benzaclin and i was a bit skeptical, especially after reading all the good reviews. After the FIRST DAY (using it both in the morning and at night) i started to see some results. I have always had larger pores and problems with blackheads on my nose. Many of the pores shrunk and the blackheads have cleared up. I also use it on my back because i break out quite often on my shoulder blades. Most of the acne is cleared up. I highly recommend this to anyone who hasnt found anything that works for them.

Cleared up my skin significantly within the first week! I use it every other day and have remained relatively pimple free for about a year other than the occasional pimple here and there

Cons:

can be irritating to the skin in the beginning but no worse than any other acne product out there

this is an excellent product

Pros:

Works fairly quickly. Gets rid of annoying blemishes. Doesn't burn on application and dries quickly. No smell.

Cons:

EXPENSIVE... wouldn't even consider it without insurance... even with insirance it's still 50 bucks. I wish it didn't have a 3 mo exp, because sometimes I'm not done with it by then and I gotta toss it.

WORKS.

Pros:

It has worked very well for me. I have oily skin so drying hasn't been a problem for me. My insurance covers it, Thank goodness!

Cons:

It bleaches my pillow cases and it has to be refridgerated. Otherwise, I have no problems with it.

I used Murad for a few days and was disgusted with the purging process. I used this to clear it up and it worked like a charm!

Pros:

it works great, and you can see results in just a matter of days.

Cons:

the cream gets pretty flakey and it's sometimes visible on ones face.

i have stuggled with acne for so long and it is such an embarassment for anyone to deal with, i recommend benzaclin because you can see the results pretty quickly. in additon, i only paid 5 dollars for my benzaclin because my insurance covered it. best of luck with this product!
