BenzaClin

What is BenzaClin?

untitledWe all know from personal experience how frustrating dealing with acne can be. It seems that either a product is recommended to you and you spend a fortune on it but see no results, or you walk up and down the skin treatment aisle fruitlessly trying to find something that will work for you but won’t break the bank. It’s hard to find a product that gives the best of both worlds by saving you money while giving you the best results. BenzaClin appears to deliver some of these results more than others. It is a potent combination of clindamycin and benzoyl peroxide. Together they kill the bacteria that causes breakouts by working as an antibiotic and an antibacterial.

Ingredients

Benzoyl peroxide is an ingredient commonly used in skin care treatments. It essentially kills the propionibacteria acnes, the main reason behind breakouts, by allowing oxygen to get into the pore. These P. acnes are unable to live in an oxygen-rich environment, so by permitting oxygen to get in the pores these bacterias are unable to flourish and cause breakouts. Benzoyl peroxide is also able to get rid of excess debris from the pores and therefore prevent future breakouts. The downside of taking benzoyl peroxide? It will most likely dry your skin out and cause itching, swelling, or a rash.

Clindamycin is a lincosamide antibiotic and is typically used to treat different bacterial infections. It works similarly to benzoyl peroxide by killing P. acnes inside pores. The combination of these two ingredients is much more effective than either of them would be alone. More side effects of taking BenzaClin could possibly include severe diarrhea, stomach cramps, stomach pains, blood or mucus in the stool, or a fungal infection that causes  changes in the skin or nails.

Is BenzaClin safe to take?

BenzaClin requires a prescription to take and you will therefore need a doctor’s referral. Consult your physician if this is right for you and let him/her know of any medical conditions or other prescriptions you are taking. If you experience any side effects let your doctor know. Do not take BenzaClin with any other facial treatments. Sun exposure should be limited while taking BenzaClin.

How much does BenzaClin cost?

With a doctor’s prescription the price will vary, but the typical price is around $100 for a 25 gm jar of it. There are promotions on the website where you can save $25 or allow you to buy the product for $20 (depending on your insurance). By ordering off the website you do not get the typical luxury of having a money back guarantee.

Conclusion

With this product being priced so high and side effects being so severe, this product does not seem to be worth the $100 you’ll likely pay. You will probably not see any results for 2-10 weeks but experience a whole slew of side effects. This product does appear to be effective but that does not mean its unique. Many other products on the market will provide, the same results for almost half the price, and some may not even require a prescription.
