Tested / clinical claims (brand-stated)

No % clinical improvement numbers are stated on the PanOxyl official page or the DailyMed drug label for this product—so keep claims strictly to “acne treatment / once daily / oil-free / fragrance-free” unless you have an official leaflet with quantified results.

How to use (Drug Facts)

• Adults + children 12+: use once daily.

• Clean skin gently, pat dry, then apply a thin layer over the entire affected area (e.g., entire face if facial acne).

• Do not use more than once per day (more won’t work faster; may increase irritation).

• Avoid contact with eyes/lips/mouth; wash hands after use.

• Can increase sun sensitivity: limit sun exposure + use sunscreen.

• If using more than one topical acne medication, irritation risk can increase (label warning).

• May take up to 3 months of once-daily use to see results; stop and ask a doctor if no improvement after that.

• Stop use and ask a doctor if you become pregnant or plan pregnancy while using it.

• Children under 12: ask a doctor.
