Get cleared with a benzoyl peroxide treatment that helped thousands to fight acne!

As you noticed, one of the indications of Benzoyl Peroxide is acne, Acne vulgaris. As any other substance it has a mechanism of interaction and reactions which are at the base of the treatment. The action mechanism of Benzoyl Peroxide consist in its Comedolytic effect property, though it destroys the comedonnes. Also, it has some destroying properties on the follicular bacteria Propionibacterium Acnes. The best part is that bacteria can’t develop resistance to Benzoyl Peroxide, they can’t perform their organisms to this substance and it is easier to fight them this case.

All the substances which contain Benzoyl Peroxide may be divided into 2 groups:

Pure Benzoyl Peroxide

  • Cream 5%, 10%
  • Gel 2.5%, 5%, 10%
  • Lotion 5%, 10%
Combinations
Benzoyl peroxide with Erythromycin (Benzamycin)
      1. Gel 50 mg benzoyl peroxide and 30 mg Erythromycin
      2. Apply to skin bid, morning & evening
      3. May cause skin dryness, erythema, Pruritus
Benzoyl peroxide/sulfur (Sulfoxyl Regular or Strong)
      1. Lotion
        1. Benzoyl 5%, Sulfur 2%
        2. Benzoyl 10%, Sulfur 5%
      2. May cause skin dryness and Contact Dermatitis

All the creams may be applied on the skin starting with small amounts. Increase slowly the strength of application and don’t forget previously to clean your skin with warm water and a soft soap. Later you may increase the time the cream is left on the skin and the amount.
Also, don’t forget about the Benzoyl Peroxide’s adverse effects: it may cause skin irritation and dryness. Also, It bleaches the hair and the clothes if dropped on them. In case of dryness, use a lotion or cream instead of gel. Also, exclude usage of acetone and alcohol based products and stick to the usual warm water with a soft soap, maybe a baby soap.
