Benzoyl peroxide is a type of organic compound and topical medication known for its antibacterial and antifungal properties. It has been used as a treatment for acne, as it works to reduce the amount of bacteria on the skin, unclog pores, and reduce inflammation. It is available in many forms including gels, creams, lotions, soaps, and solutions. Its main side effect is dryness and irritation of the skin. Though benzoyl peroxide is generally considered safe for use by adults, pregnant women should consult their doctor before using it. With proper usage, benzoyl peroxide can be an effective way to reduce inflammation associated with acne and clear up mild to moderate breakouts.
