This combination is often recommended for individuals looking to address mild to moderate acne.

What precautions apply to Adapalene?
It is important to use TARO-Adapalene/Benzoyl Peroxide 0.1% Gel as directed. Avoid applying the gel to broken or irritated skin.

What does Adapalene interact with?
TARO-Adapalene/Benzoyl Peroxide 0.1% Gel should not be used with other topical acne treatments unless directed by a healthcare provider.
