ABSTRACT
A clinical trial using Airol cream (retinoic acid cream 0.05%), Panoxyl-5 and Panoxyl-10 (benzoyl-peroxide alcoholic gel 5% & 10%) in combination and alone as topical applications for 10 weeks was carried out on 150 ambulatory patients with acne vulgaris. The results based on efficacy, drug tolerance and treatment duration show that the combined use of Panoxyl and Airol is superior to the use of either drug alone and that the combination of Airol cream (0.05%) in the morning and Panoxyl gel (5%) before retiring was the most satisfactory.
