Klaron

Hey, I've read some amazing things about klaron (sodium sulfacetamide)...is it a wash or a lotion? can anyone compare it clindamycin (what i use now during the day, and doesnt help ALL that much)? i use differin cream at night, and have somewhat oily, sensitive skin......thanks guys

Re: Klaron

I used Klaron for a couple of weeks and my acne just kept getting worde and worse. I didn't understand what was going on. I thought maybe it was my pills, turns out i am allergic to it. I've been off of it for 2 days and i can see a major difference!! So hopefully you won't have the same problem!! How long have you been using clinda and differin? I used it a while back and it completely cleared my skin except for around my time. But I ended up stopping the differin be/c of tanning, it was drying my skin out to much doing both. I never really had too much of a problem with acne (I didn't get a lot at one time). I get cysts. But I always did have at least one or two pimple on my face at all times, big painful ones (cysts). But the clinda and differin help alot like I said. Oh and the Klaron that I had was a lotion. I don't know if it comes in anything else. I never even heard about it until recently, when the derm gave it to me.

Re: Klaron

I use the Klaron in the morning after I wash and the Differin at night. It is a sodium sulfate lotion or something like that. It doesn't look like lotion though it is like a clear liquid. I like it. I don't know if it is the magical answer to cure acne but it seems to help some.

Re: Klaron

Have you considered stopping using the clindamycin? Because it's an antibiotic, your acne can develop resistance to it over time, and actually turn out worse in the long run. You may want to try using a benzoyl peroxide cream/gel instead, because that also kills the bacteria but they do not develop resistance to it.
