Quick EnquiryBenzoyl Peroxide Gel 2.5% w/w is an effective medication for mild to moderate acne. This medication contains Benzoyl Peroxide (BzO)2. It is believed to have a three-fold activity in the treatment of acne. It is comedolytic, sebostatic, and blocks the Cutibacterium acnes growth, which is the primary bacterium associated with acne. Acne vulgaris is a hormone-mediated swelling of sebaceous glands and hair follicles. Hormone changes are responsible for keratin increase and sebum production, which leads to blocked drainage.
Acnes has lytic enzymes that break down the lipids and proteins in the sebum, leading to the inflammatory response. Benozle peroxide's free-radical reaction breaks down the keratin. Thereby, it unblocks the drainage of sebum. In addition, it can cause nonspecific peroxidation of acnes, making it bactericidal. Also, it was believed to decrease sebum production.
