Frequently asked questions about Benzac AC Products
Frequently asked questions about Benzoyl Peroxide
Q. How should Benzac AC 5% Gel be applied?
You should remove all of the make-up. Wash your hands and the affected area and gently dry. Put a thin layer of Benzac AC 5% Gel cream on the affected skin, using your fingertips. Apply it to the entire area affected by acne, not just each spot. After applying, wash your hands thoroughly with water.
Q. Should Benzac AC 5% Gel be left on overnight?
At the beginning of the treatment, Benzac AC 5% Gel is usually used once daily in the evening. The area is not washed off after application of Benzac AC 5% Gel, so it can be left overnight unless you experience irritation. However, if you experience irritation, consult your doctor.
Q. What should prompt me to discontinue Benzac AC 5% Gel?
You should discontinue Benzac AC 5% Gel and consult your doctor if you experience severe local irritation, which means severe redness, dryness and itching and stinging/burning sensation.
Q. What precautions should be followed while applying Benzac AC 5% Gel?
Use Benzac AC 5% Gel only on your skin. Keep it away from areas like your eyes, eyelids, lips, mouth and inside of the nose. If the medicine comes in contact with any of these areas, wash the affected area with water immediately. Avoid using Benzac AC 5% Gel on scratched or eroded skin and open wounds. Take care when using Benzac AC 5% Gel on sensitive areas of skin such as your neck. Benzac AC 5% Gel can make your skin more sensitive to the harmful effects of the sunlight. So, avoid the use of sunbeds/lamps and minimize the time you spend in the sun. You should use sunscreen and wear protective clothing while using Benzac AC 5% Gel. Avoid contact with hair as Benzac AC 5% Gel has bleaching properties. It can even bleach dyed or colored fabric, furniture or carpeting.
Q. How often should I apply Benzac AC 5% Gel?
The initial dose is preferably once daily in the evening. Later, the doctor will gradually increase the dose to twice daily (most probably morning and evening).
Q. How long does Benzac AC 5% Gel take to show its effects?
You may see an improvement after 4-6 weeks of treatment. You may need to use this treatment for longer to see the full benefits. This is normal for acne treatments. If your acne does not get better after 1 month or if it gets worse, talk to your doctor immediately.
Q. Do you apply moisturizer before or after Benzac AC 5% Gel?
You may apply moisturizer an hour after applying Benzac AC 5% Gel. Consult your doctor in case of any doubt or concern.
