User Reviews for Adapalene/benzoyl peroxide

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): It seems to be helping a lot. First 2 weeks there was a mild peeling of skin (similar to mild sunburn) but now it is fine. I haven't tried many prescriptions, (mostly cosmetic-over-counter types), but if you are curious try this. It's pricey though.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): I started using this medicine about a week ago and I've already noticed significant changes in my skin. Prior to use I had a very bad breakout of acne all over my face small bumps and big ones. Now I have very very few bumps and also the scars left behind from old bumps is also beginning to clear up and lighten my complexion for a more even tone. The only downfall is the stinging that occurs sometimes along with minimal peeling but other than that it gets the job done and I'm pleased with what I'm seeing thus far. Hopefully it continues to eventually make me acne free.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): Love Epiduo. I have been on every type of medication for acne. These include oral antibiotics, topical creams, and even Accutane. A year after being off Acutane, my acne was starting to get bad again. My dermatologist recommended a second course of the drug. I was very reluctant to do so, so I asked to try one more thing before starting Accutane again. I got prescribed Epiduo and I love it. I am using it at night before I go to bed and it is working amazing. I actually saw results the first week of using it. I did have some dryness but nothing I couldn't handle. I'll take dry skin over an acne breakout any day. Definitely worth trying.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): I've been using Epiduo for two months. My doctor previously warned me that it may cause my skin to break out more in the first weeks, as well as dry my skin out and possibly burn. He recommended that I use it every other night in the beginning. I did this and I haven't had any major problems. My skin did break out more for a week or two, but now it's clear. Because it's expensive, I still use it every other night and my skin has remained clear. The only problem I've had is the corners of my mouth becoming dry and cracking. I've solved that problem by not putting it to close to that area and using Neosporin. I would definitely recommend this medication to anyone who has acne that proactive and other prescribed medicines haven't effectively treated.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): I started using this medication on September 7th 2010 and todays date is September 28th 2010 and boy have I noticed a big difference. The first couple of weeks I felt like giving up because the burning and peeling was unbearable. But now my face is a lot clearer and the burning and peeling is gone. It still have someways to go but its so much better. My advice to you is to hold on and wait a little while longer because you will see awesome results once you get past that stage.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): I am in the first week of using it and I have A LOT of irritation and my skin is VERY dry. I didn't have much acne before and I have a lot now. Putting a lot of lotion helps the dryness but I am in need for the bumps to leave.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): I love this product. I've tried EVERYTHING under the sun for my cystic acne. Epiduo is the only one that worked. I'm using it in addition to clindamycin lotion and doxycycline and have been using it all for about 5 days. I noticed a difference in my skin the very first day. I am experiencing some dryness and mild redness upon waking in the morning but nothing a little Neutrogena lotion with SPF couldn't handle. Also I would recommend drinking lots of water if you're on the regimen I am. Need to stay hydrated while using these medicines. Believe me, I'm a registered medical assistant. If Epiduo didn't work, I wouldn't be on here saying it does.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): I used it morning and night for about 3 days and you can already tell a difference and my acne is clearing up. Unfortunately my skin is peeling, which forced me to get a moisturizer. Anyway it works for me.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): I have been using Epiduo for about 6 months and I'm in love with it. I travel a lot and even so much as got samples from my dermatologist since I don't check my bags and because of the airline restrictions. I haven't had any bad reactions and noticed just after a few days of using it a huge difference in my skin. I have tried several acne regimens from Clean & Clear to Proactiv and nothing worked until I started using Epiduo.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): I love this product! I am in my upper 30s and have been dealing with acne off and on for years. I almost gave up on having clear skin until I started this Epiduo. Miracle worker!

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): I'm a week into using Epiduo and Solodyn and I must say I haven't seen this many pimples on my face since I was a teenager! I have heard that it has to get worse before it gets better, so I'm going to stick it out and see what happens.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): I had an unpleasant experience. I had only used it for a week and it made big red marks on my face like eczema. And it didn't help with my acne at all.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): I have been using Epiduo for a month now and have had acne for a few years. It is great at getting rid of the acne but the side effects are bad on me. It made my eye swell up and go red and cause major irritation. When I go back to my dermatologist I will ask to be put on something else.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): I have been using Epiduo for about a week. I have a lot of stinging and itching and my skin is very dry. Giving up was my next step until I read your comments. I will continue using it along with a moisturizer and neosporin, if necessary.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): Using Epiduo and oral antibiotics for 3 weeks now. No change on my acne. Made my skin burn first few days but not now.. Have to use moisturizer now and my neck is also dry. I have large spots as well as loads of tiny white ones.. Mainly on my cheeks going towards my chin and on my neck. I will stick to it for 12weeks now. I hope it works. I am 26 and have had severe acne for about 6 yrs now.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): Works well as long as you keep up with applying it. I had ance all over my forehead and chin, now it's cleared (as long as I remember to put it on).

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): It works great.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): Works very well at controlling breakouts. However, getting rid of them is another story. I have been using Epiduo for 3 months now.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): LOVE IT. I had the worst breakouts, so I got Epiduo. When I used it the first time it showed results the next day. I continue to use it and I almost don't have a single breakout and I've only been using it for a week. It also helps with redness and acne scars. I love my new skin and you will too.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): Extremely dry skin and my acne has cleared up but I get at least 3 big pimples a week.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): I'm so glad that I have found this product because it made my skin stop from such breakout. I have consulted doctor for this and I am really glad because it's effective. Just need to wait. Patience is a must. The only problem is the redness like a small one dot.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): This medicine is amazing, it worked wonders for me! Let's start with the cons, like mentioned in other reviews, Epiduo dries your skin out like crazy so wait about 10-20 minutes after putting it on your face then moisturize with an oil-free moisturizer if you don't want peeling or dry spots on your beautiful face. Another con is that it bleaches your clothing so I suggest you get fully dressed prior to applying it on your face. I've always had perfect skin but I got an allergic reaction to Clearasil cleansing pads and I broke out like no other so my doctor prescribed this to me and my skin cleared up in 2 weeks. I'm speechless, I can't stop telling people about this medicine.

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): My skin got really better, got some irritation earlier, stopped using it and resumed the treatment again. Works!

Epiduo (adapalene/ benzoyl peroxide): I've seriously only been using Epiduo for four days and have seen A HUGE improvement. My skin is a little dry but I use Cetaphil moisturizer to balance it out. I am also using Doxycycline along with the topical treatment (Epiduo) and my acne is getting soooo much better. LOVE IT!

adapalene/benzoyl peroxide: I had some very hard pimples that lasted for more than three months on my face. Only Epiduo Gel made them disappear.
