Description
Perrigo Benzoyl Peroxide 10% Hydroalcoholic Base Acne Gel provides maximum strength over-the-counter acne treatment for stubborn, persistent breakouts. This pharmaceutical-grade gel delivers the highest concentration of benzoyl peroxide available without prescription, making it ideal for severe acne conditions that haven't responded to lower-strength treatments. The hydroalcoholic base ensures rapid absorption and deep penetration into pores, where it works to kill acne-causing bacteria, reduce inflammation, and prevent new breakouts. The 60-gram tube provides substantial product quantity for extended treatment periods. Perrigo's reputation for quality generic medications ensures consistent potency and purity in every application. This professional-strength formula is recommended for use under guidance of a healthcare provider or dermatologist, particularly for those with persistent or cystic acne. The gel dries quickly and works continuously throughout the day or night to combat acne at its source. While highly effective, the 10% concentration requires careful introduction to minimize potential irritation while maximizing therapeutic benefits.
Suggested Use
Start with once daily application to clean, dry skin. Apply a thin layer only to affected areas, avoiding healthy skin. Gradually increase frequency as tolerated, up to twice daily. Begin with small amounts to assess skin tolerance. Allow complete drying before applying other products or clothing.
