About Epiduo® Gel

What to Expect.

Expect more from your treatment. Like results.

The dual action of Epiduo® (adapalene and benzoyl peroxide) Gel 0.1%/2.5% will give you results. It's been proven safe and effective for short- and long-term acne treatment. Clinical trials with thousands of patients showed that many people's breakouts visibly improved and continued to get better with consistent treatment.

Even when your breakouts are under control, Epiduo is safe to use, as recommended by a doctor, to keep your skin on the right track.

As with most acne treatments, Epiduo Gel may come with mild side effects. If your skin is irritated at first, you should see improvements after the first couple of weeks. Typical side effects associated with short-term and long-term use of Epiduo Gel are redness, scaling, dryness, stinging and burning where applied. A non-comedogenic moisturizer such as Cetaphil® DERMACONTROL™ Oil Control Moisturizer SPF 30 can help if your skin becomes dry. Unless major discomfort occurs, it's best to keep using Epiduo Gel to make sure you're on the right path. But don't hesitate to talk to your doctor if you have major discomfort or if you have any questions or issues at all.
