Duac has given me a red face help, what to do?

Medication burn: Rashes from certain products can often be considered and treated as a chemical burn. Cool compresses, aloe vera gel and possibly hydrocortisone cream may help (talk to your doctor about using steroids on your face first!). Washing with a hypoallergenic cleanser and applying noncomedogenic moisturizer can help prevent dryness that will occur with healing.

Relax: Benzoyl peroxide can help acne but some people do not tolerate it. There are a variety of other acne treatments. Some people need only use it carefully. Only a small amt, never eyelids or lips. Not more than once a day, maybe not every day. A moisturizer. Take a rest from Duac and your face will recover in a short time.
