I've been struggling with acne for a while now, and I've heard good things about Benzoyl Peroxide 10% Wash. I ordered the 227gm bottle and I am excited to try it. However, I am a bit worried about the side effects, especially the severe ones. I've seen people mentioning dryness, but what if I experience hives or skin peeling? How serious are allergic reactions? I've also read that some people feel a stinging sensation. Does this go away over time? Also, how do I know if my reaction to the wash is normal or if I need to seek medical help?

I've been struggling with acne for a while now, and my dermatologist recommended trying Benzoyl Peroxide Wash 5% Liq 113ml. I've read that it can cause some dryness and peeling, especially at the start, but I'm hoping the benefits will outweigh the side effects. Has anyone else used this product? I'd love to hear about your experiences, both good and bad. Did you find it effective in treating acne? How long did it take to see results? Any tips on how to manage the side effects? And is it necessary to use it in combination with other products? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
