A member asked:

Can u give me an example of otc product cleanser contain benoxyl peroxide for pimples in my face?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lots of choices.: There are literally hundreds of benzoyl peroxide products, and at least have of them are cleansers. Panoxyl, topix, clean & clear, neutrogena...The list is endless. In addition you should also get a benzoyl peroxide cream or gel to apply twice a day. And be aware that benzoyl peroxide is a bleaching agent - so don't get it on your clothes, or you'll have permanent white spots!
