I've been struggling with acne for years and my dermatologist recently prescribed Clinda/benzoyl 1.2-3.75% Gel Pump. I'm a bit nervous about the side effects, especially the severe ones. Has anyone here used this gel and had good results? I'd love to hear about your experiences, the routine you followed, and any tips you might have.

I had a severe allergic reaction. I hope you don't have the same issue.

I heard this can cause diarrhea. Is that true?

The first week was rough, my face felt like it was on fire, but after that it started to clear up. Stick with it, it's worth it.

I've been using it for a month and my skin is way better! Just be sure to moisturize and use sunscreen since it can make your skin sensitive.

I've been on this gel for about three months now, and it's been a game-changer. I apply it every night after washing my face. It does make my skin a bit dry, so I moisturize regularly. I've seen a significant reduction in breakouts, especially around my chin and forehead. Just be patient, it might take a few weeks to see results, and always do a patch test before full application.

I think this gel is great but make sure you talk to your doctor first. I tried it without consulting a professional and it wasn't a good experience.

I don't get it, why does my skin feel so dry? I put it on and then use moisturizer and it still feels dry. Is there an alternative?

I had a really bad reaction to it. Got hives and had to stop using it immediately. Everyone is different, so be cautious.
