A member asked:

Got some pimples on face on saturday. started using bentadine on tuesday. now my face is itchy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Stop: I would never advise using a drying product like betadine on the face. The itching would be an expected response on this sensitive skin. Please stop and remove any residual material. A moisturizer may help the skin recover. within a week or so.
