Benzyl peroxide is a commonly used acne treatment. It is usually applied to the skin in the form of a cream or gel and helps reduce the formation of facial acne. This medication kills bacteria on the skin and also helps reduce sebum production, thereby improving acne conditions. When using, you should read the instructions carefully and use it according to the recommendations of your doctor or pharmacist. Avoid contact with eyes, mouth and mucous membranes during use. It may cause slight irritation upon first use, but this is normal. If severe skin reaction occurs, discontinue use immediately and consult a medical professional. In Hong Kong, benzene peroxide is a common acne treatment, but you should consult your doctor before use to ensure it is safe and effective.
How to use: Apply BENZOYL PEROXIDE ointment to clean, dry skin, avoiding contact with eyes, lips and mucous membranes. Usually used 1-2 times a day, avoid exposure to sunlight. It is recommended to wash your face before use and wait until the skin is completely dry before applying to avoid excessive drying.
Dosage Guidelines: The starting dose for adults and adolescents is 2.5%-5% ointment once daily. Depending on skin reactions, your physician may recommend dosage adjustments, but each adjustment should be separated by at least 1-2 weeks. Children should consult a physician for instructions when using it. The dosage should be determined based on age and severity of symptoms. Do not adjust the dosage without authorization. If severe allergic reactions or adverse reactions occur, stop use and seek medical advice immediately.

If you are planning to become pregnant or are already pregnant, you should seek medical advice immediately. Doctors will assess risks based on individual circumstances and give appropriate advice and treatment options.
During pregnancy, women should be especially careful to avoid using medications that have not been approved by their doctor to ensure the health and safety of their fetus. Please remember that you should carefully consult a professional doctor for medication during pregnancy and never use any medication on your own.
