Is eldoquin forte 4% hydroquinone cream for lightening darkness around my mouth safe and for how long should it be used ?

Hydroquinone: HC is under review right now. there has been bad press in Europe and I heard the FDA is reviewing it's safety right now. I recommend safer products like Lytera made by Skin Medica.
