Dual-Action Topical Gel for Mild to Moderate Acne

Epiduo® Gel is a once-daily prescription-only acne treatment that combines adapalene (a retinoid) and benzoyl peroxide to reduce breakouts, unblock pores, and improve skin clarity. It targets both non-inflammatory acne (blackheads, whiteheads) and inflammatory acne (red, swollen spots).

Ideal for those struggling with persistent acne that hasn’t responded well to over-the-counter options.

How Does Epiduo Work?

  • Adapalene is a retinoid that increases cell turnover, helping to unblock pores and prevent new breakouts
  • Benzoyl peroxide is an antibacterial that kills acne-causing bacteria and reduces redness
  • Together, they form a potent combination to treat a wide range of acne types and reduce the likelihood of future flare-ups

Improvements are often seen in 2–4 weeks, with best results after consistent use for 8–12 weeks.

How to Use Epiduo Gel

  • Apply a thin layer once daily, preferably in the evening
  • Use on clean, dry skin
  • Avoid eyes, lips, and mucous membranes
  • Start with a small amount to assess skin tolerance
  • Apply moisturiser to reduce dryness or irritation
  • Wear SPF during the day — adapalene increases sun sensitivity

Possible Side Effects

  • Dryness, redness, and peeling (common in the first few weeks)
  • Mild burning or stinging
  • Skin sensitivity to sun exposure

These effects are usually temporary and settle as your skin adjusts. Discontinue if severe irritation occurs.

Who Is Epiduo Suitable For?

  • Teenagers and adults aged 12+
  • Mild to moderate acne affecting the face, chest, or back
  • Suitable for oily and acne-prone skin types
Not suitable if you:
  • Are allergic to adapalene or benzoyl peroxide
