There's a new over-the-counter acne medication you need to know about: EpiDuo.⁠ ⁠ Here's what's in it:⁠ Adapalene (0.1%) — a retinoid that directly activates retinoid receptors in the skin. Doesn't need to undergo conversion the way most OTC retinols do. Used to be prescription only. Now OTC.⁠ Benzoyl peroxide (2.5%) — been OTC for decades.⁠ ⁠ EpiDuo combines both into one product. Focus on the "duo."⁠ ⁠ If adapalene alone hasn't been enough for your acne, and you struggle with doing more than one step in your routine — this is where I'd tell you to start. One product, two proven actives, no prescription needed. Not terribly expensive.⁠ ⁠ This is exactly the kind of accessible, evidence-based option that makes a real difference.⁠ ⁠ #dermatologist #epiduo #adapalene #benzoylperoxide #acnetreatment #skincare #dermatology
