For Acne "I hate this product. I'm not sure if the instructions were clear, but it was not effective. In fact, I got an allergic reaction to it. I read over the labels and instructions, but it didn't help. I used that product, and it gave me burns and dry skin, and on top of it, my face was swollen and puffy. I personally disliked this, my face looks disgusting. I was extremely insecure, so I wore a mask the whole day. I felt repulsive and hid myself from the public. I understand that this product might've worked for some people, but unfortunately, it didn't work for me."

For Acne "So upset! Was prescribed this benzoyl peroxide/erythromycin after having a severe reaction to an acne pill. I didn’t have any problems the first two weeks of using this and seemed to be at least doing something. A month later, and my face looks like it has sunburns all over and itches. The burns hurt so bad I can’t even wash my face now. I just want to cry. This stuff is causing me to have severe anxiety attacks thanks to what it did to me. I’m already dealing with multiple chronic illnesses. I should have never tried this and just kept the acne."

For Acne "I just got prescribed this today. I am very excited to start. It all started last year in February. My face got covered with little bumps and I was acne/bumps free before. Never had one. So, I was scared and went to my doctor and that same day all the bumps on my face swelled up. Well, that was an allergy, was given meds, and went away. They all came back again this year but now it's not allergies but acne. My doctor prescribed this. It's the first day of using but one of my friends had moderate acne before and her face is all cleared up now but she was given this gel as well. Will update when I see the results. I really hope it works and that acne never comes back as everyone has mentioned that it came back. Can't fight with this all my life."
