A member asked:
What is the difference between tazorac (tazarotene) and retin-a (in the setting of acne tx)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Both are retinoids: depends on which one is tolerated more or gives better results, usually Tazorac (tazarotene) is more potent, ask your doctor, you may want to try both and decide for yourself, given that you use them right and follow the instructions well, take care
