new acne treatment, Differin (adapalene) gel

September 1996

You'll see a new acne treatment, Differin (adapalene) gel.

It's a topical retinoid...like Retin-A (tretinoin).

It works at least as well as Retin-A 0.025% gel...but it's less likely to cause skin irritation. This may be partly because Differin is a water-based gel...Retin-A gel contains alcohol.
