IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

- Redness, peeling, and skin sensitivity can occur, so it’s best to ease into treatment. Your skin will adjust to the medicine over time.
- A benzoyl peroxide wash is important to use in order to prevent bacterial resistance.

- Apply a moisturizer either immediately before or after you apply your topical treatment.
- If your skin becomes irritated, reduce frequency of use. If the irritation persists, stop the medication and contact your dermatology team.
