Pros:

Worked for awhile

Cons:

Stopped working

prior to this i was using Vichy normaderm WHICH WORKS FANTASTIC!!! I used this with differin for 2 weeks both of them at the same time at night. if worked than stopped working after the second week than i switched to differin at night and clindoxyl in the daytime acne stayed the same so i decided before GRAD PHOTO DAY to use only differin in the night time and i applied vichy cream in the morning and ir worked fabulously have been doing that ever since the problem is that differin when starting needs something like clindoxyl to balance it out but when the balancing is over it really just hurt me. I reccomend and dont reccomend it.

Pros:

What pros can there be? Look at all the cons below:

Cons:

- causes redness and dryness
- temporary cure
- bleaches clothes

There are far better and cheaper products on the market. The redness and dryness issue should make everybody back away from the product. Redness is what we're trying to abate here! If you have severe acne, go to a derm, get them to prescribe you minocycline. If that doesn't work, then just do the accutane. At least then you will be "cured." Pro Active works better then this stuff!

Pros:

Makes your pimples smaller pretty fast like within 5 hours.
I remember when I first started using it, I had a few big pimples, and it made it really small.

Cons:

Kinda dried out my skin, but I'm okay with it.
It DOESNT WORK
i used it for 1 month and half now, and my pimples are still there, it's smaller, but there's more of them now. I think my skin developed some protection against this medication or something. So it is just not working now.
It's pretty expensive however if you have insurance it's okay

if you don't have alot of pimples then I guess it would be pretty good. And it's good to buy it if you have insurance. My dad's insurance paid everything, so I didnt really have to pay for it. I dont't really think it's worth it. It really made my 0.00skin pretty awful.

Pros:

Made my skin clear but very shiny/oily looking

Cons:

I think it actually enlarges your pores and does something to the sebaccous glands.
It contains an antibiotic
It bleaches clothes, pyjamas, pillows, towels.

It works well, but if you stop using it your screwed for life. You will always need it or something else. I used my mom's prescription when I didn't even have any significant acne, and I could swear that it did something to my pores/glands. This sounds weird but i feel that using this product made me get acne and now it is like an addiction because I always need it in order for my skin to get clear. I think it has made my skin hypersensitive. Maybe b/c of the antibiotics? Don't make the mistake of using creams you don't need. Less is more. Try and find more natural ways of clearing your skin. There are many ways. And, I don't think it should be used under make-up or during the day (light exposure). It specifically says not to expose yourself to the sun or heat lamps while using this product. This includes after you wash it off. I have used this product for 8 years on and off and can't stop because it has probably done irreversable altering of my pores/glands?
