Description

Epiduo gel is a prescription only medication used in the treatment of moderate to severe acne. It contains two active ingredients;

Benzoyl peroxide – a keratolytic (peeling) agent with antibacterial properties

Adapalene – belonging to a group of compounds known as retinoids, it works by helping to reduce inflammation in acne prone regions as well as reducing the formation of blackheads and whiteheads on the outermost layer of the skin.

Coming from the same group of compounds as Tretinoin (another commonly used acne treatment), Adapalene is a 3^rd generation retinoid and is newer and often better tolerated.

Learn Why Our Customers Love Smart Chemist

I needed some specialist skincare products that I couldn't find in local stores. Not only did Smart Chemist have everything I was looking for, but the detailed product descriptions and reviews helped me choose the right items for my skin type. The order arrived in perfect condition. Excellent service and a fantastic selection of products.

The selection of healthcare products on Smart Chemist is impressive, and the prices are good. However, I found the website a bit confusing to navigate. I think the user interface could be improved to make it easier for customers to find what they're looking for. That said, once I found the products I needed, the checkout process was straightforward.

Priya Patel 07/11/2023

Smart Chemist offers a great range of over-the-counter products at competitive prices. The only reason I'm not giving five stars is because the delivery took a couple of days longer than anticipated. However, the product quality and the convenience of ordering from home more than make up for the slight delay
