Prescription benzaclin or just benzoyl peroxide?!


Question: Prescription benzaclin or just benzoyl peroxide!?
I went to my derm a week ago and she prescribed me antibiotics and benzaclin which has benzoyl peroxide and clindamycin which is used to kill bacteria!. But the benzaclin comes in a 25g jar for 15 dollars which is way to expensive for me!. I used up my first jar in just a few days, my derm told me to put in on my whole face twice a day!. I am thinking of just getting regular benzoyl peroxide since it basically does the same, just without the clindamycin for much cheaper!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
In canada at least the only diff between prescription BP or Non BP is the strength

you could try a 5% cream or lotion and see if that works for you and if not go back to the pricey stuffWww@Answer-Health@Com
