For Acne "This medication actually works! After trying too many topicals to count, Tazorac is definitely the best. For those starting Tazorac reading this review right now, I know how much it sucks in the beginning. The initial breakout can be so horrible-trust me, I've been there. I've cried and not wanted to go out in public, but in the long run-I promise it's worth it. Give it about 3 months to officially work, and you'll be grateful."

For Acne "This did not work for me. I used it religiously for 8 weeks, and it only made my acne worse. I woke up every morning with new whiteheads, it gave me larger, more painful pimples than I had before starting this cream."

For Acne "I am 65. Because of thyroid supplements, I started getting very oily with lots of blackheads on my nose, lips, and chin, and a few small pimples. Went to my derm after an 18-year lapse; she prescribed Tazorac; I really wanted Accutane, which I had taken in my 40s, really good stuff, but she insisted that I try Tazorac at 0.1%; I love it. It set my face on fire for about 2 weeks; I used Epionce medical barrier cream to cool it and help with the sting. My face was very red too. After 2 weeks, the burn lessened, and now I can put it on several days in a row without the cream. Been using for 2 months, and my skin is looking fantastic and brighter; I have a few acne scars and they are looking much smaller too. I am getting compliments from family members."

For Acne "Tazorac made my acne worse. Once I stopped using it, my acne got better. It was in use with another topical cream. It’s very expensive."
