Description
Rugby Acne Medication Benzoyl Peroxide Gel 5% provides powerful, prescription-strength acne treatment in a convenient 1.5 oz tube. This pharmaceutical-grade gel contains 5% benzoyl peroxide, one of the most effective over-the-counter acne-fighting ingredients available. Benzoyl peroxide works by releasing oxygen into the pores, creating an environment where acne-causing bacteria cannot survive, while also helping to remove excess oil and dead skin cells. Rugby Laboratories ensures consistent quality and potency in this generic formulation, offering the same active ingredient found in leading brand-name acne treatments at a more affordable price. The gel formula absorbs quickly into skin without leaving a heavy residue, making it suitable for use under makeup or other skincare products. This medication is particularly effective for inflammatory acne, including papules and pustules, and can help prevent new breakouts when used consistently. The 5% concentration provides strong therapeutic benefits while remaining suitable for most skin types when introduced gradually into a skincare routine.
Suggested Use
Clean the affected area and pat dry. Apply a thin layer to affected areas once daily, initially. Gradually increase to twice daily if tolerated and needed. Start with a small amount to assess skin tolerance. Allow to dry completely before applying other products. Use consistently for 6-8 weeks for optimal results.
