Background and Objective: Adapalene/benzoyl peroxide gel (ADP/BPO) benzoyl (BPO) are recommended for the treatment of acne vulgaris during acute inflammatory phase maintenance therapy after inflammation has subsided. As an advantage continued treatment, it is expected that atrophic scar formation will be reduced by maintaining remission The purpose this study was to investigate usefulness with ...

BACKGROUND Acne vulgaris is a chronic disease with several pathogenic factors. Multiple medications are typically used that can lead to nonadherence and treatment failure.

The objective of the current study was to establish a validated stability-indicating, high-performance liquid chromatographic method to determine the purity of benzoyl peroxide (BPO) and adapalene (ADP) in the presence of its impurities, forced degradation products, and placebo in pharmaceutical dosage forms. The desired chromatographic separation was achieved on the Kinetex(™) C18 (250 × 4.6 m...

INTRODUCTION Poor adherence to acne treatment may lead to unnecessary treatments, increased healthcare costs, and reduced quality of life (QoL). This multicenter study evaluated the effect of supplementary patient education material (SEM) (a short video, information card, and additional information available online) on treatment adherence and satisfaction among acne patients treated with the fi...
