Your site recommends benzoyl peroxide which has similar or worse side effects compared to tretinoin.
It's also a lauded product on both r/SkincareAddiction and r/30PlusSkincare. Not something recommended for kids, but for adults with persistent acne
it is worth trying, especially over antibiotics and alongside BP.
- broast 2y agoLately topical Tretinoin has been shown in numerous studies to cause Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension aka Pseudotumor Cerebri which is quite intense. My post about this on sca from years ago recieves a many comments to this day from other sufferers. I'll never touch it again despite my adult acne. I wonder how many other people have debilitating potentially blinding brain pressure headaches and don't realize it is caused by this medicine commonly accepted as safe.
