Prisben AC 2.5% Gel

Prisben AC 2.5% Gel is a topical acne medicine containing benzoyl peroxide 2.5% in each tube. It belongs to the acne treatment class and is used to help treat mild to moderate acne, including pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. Prisben AC 2.5% Gel works on the skin to reduce acne-causing bacteria and help clear clogged pores. It is manufactured by Prism Life Sciences Ltd. and supplied in a strip/box of 10 tubes.

How it works: Benzoyl peroxide works by releasing oxygen on the skin, which helps kill acne-causing bacteria. In gel form, Prisben AC 2.5% Gel spreads easily over affected areas and helps dry excess oil and reduce clogged pores.

Prisben AC 2.5% Gel is a lower-strength benzoyl peroxide gel, which often makes it a good option for people with sensitive skin or for those starting acne treatment. Compared with higher-strength benzoyl peroxide products, the 2.5% gel may be less irritating while still being effective for many patients, so a doctor may choose it to balance results and tolerability.

• Mild to moderate acne
• Pimples
• Blackheads
• Whiteheads
• Acne-prone skin management

• Use Prisben AC 2.5% Gel only on the skin, not by mouth.
• Wash the affected area gently and pat it dry before applying.
• Apply a thin layer to the acne-prone area as directed by your doctor.
• Avoid the eyes, lips, inside the nose, and broken or irritated skin.
• Wash your hands after applying unless the hands are being treated.
• Use it at the time of day your doctor recommends; if it dries or irritates the skin, your prescriber may advise less frequent use at first.

Each tube of Prisben AC 2.5% Gel contains benzoyl peroxide 2.5%, which is a commonly used low-strength topical acne dose. It is usually applied once daily or as directed, and some patients may use it more than once a day only if their doctor says so. The maximum amount and frequency depend on the treated area, skin tolerance, and your doctor’s instructions, since this strength is meant to be individualized rather than self-escalated.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Benzoyl Peroxide may include:

• Dry skin
• Peeling or flaking
• Mild burning or stinging
• Redness
• Itching
• Skin irritation, which can still happen even with the 2.5% strength

• Use only as directed on the skin; do not apply to cuts, sunburned skin, or eczema unless your doctor tells you to.
• Start carefully if you have sensitive skin, since even 2.5% benzoyl peroxide can cause dryness or irritation.
• Avoid getting the gel in your eyes, mouth, or nostrils; rinse well with water if accidental contact occurs.
• This product can bleach hair, eyebrows, clothing, towels, and bedding.
• Use sunscreen and limit excessive sun exposure if your skin becomes more sensitive or irritated.
• Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have very reactive skin before using Prisben AC 2.5% Gel.
• Do not use more often or in a thicker layer than prescribed, because that can increase irritation without improving acne faster.

• Other topical acne products that can irritate the skin, such as retinoids, salicylic acid, or alpha hydroxy acids
• Topical products containing sulfur, resorcinol, or alcohol-based acne treatments
• Harsh soaps, scrubs, peels, or astringents
• Other benzoyl peroxide products used at the same time unless your doctor approves
