Used Erythromycin / Benzoyl Peroxide (Benzamycin®)? Rate It:
Cons:
After prolonged use it is no longer effective. Dries skin out. Terrible taste. Bleaches clothes.
Pros:
I cleared up all those smaller blemishes fast so the one that take longer started healing too but looks alot better without all the littles and helps put my oily skin under control.
Cons:
the dryness and peeling at first bothered me but it doesn't last long.
Pros:
It started clearing my skin up after a couple days, but now my face is breaking out!
Cons:
I've only used the product for a week and I thought I was seeing results. But after a couple days of being clear, I started breaking out whereever I put the medication. I'm not sure if this is the whole "It gets worse before it gets better."
Pros:
- works well
- works QUICKLY
Cons:
- extrememly drying
- must be refrigerated
Pros:
works when used consistently, stops my sking from producing so much oil
Cons:
a little harsh, can really screw up sensitive skin; will not work unless used every day as a regimen
Pros:
Very good at drying up pimples that are already present. Feels cool to the touch when applied. No need to worry about contamination because they come in packets. & easy to travel with. (Can take on the plane!!)
Cons:
Very drying when first used. Can leave a white -looking film on your face(use a moisturizer if necessary). May not be enough product in the packets.
Pros:
I've been using Benzamycin for years! My brothers used it too, but they don't any longer, and their faces are still perfectly clear. Clears quickly and effectively
Cons:
Since April 2006, found it is not having any effect on me anymore. They say you don't become immune to BP, but I seem to have? Have not changed any other aspect of my skin routine, but am going to stop using a few things to see how it goes.
Pros:
I notived improvement after a few nights of usage. The pimples started to slowly fade away.
Cons:
The dryness of course. Rather be a little dry than pimply though. Is rather expensive if your insurance does not cover it. In Toronto I paid $10 CAN after my college drug plan coverage.
Pros:
Originally saw some improvement, helped keep minor acne, whiteheads and comedones under control.
