Hi,

I was using the acne medication Differen. I know that it takes serval months for Differen to take full effect. I used it for about 3 months, it worked wonders!

Just yesterday, I switched to a new medication, Tretinoin. I'm wondering will I have to wait months for this medication to finally work and go through the side effects I had at the beginning while using Differen? Or will this be like continuing the use of Differen? If not, is it likely my acne will come back?

Differen gel is a prescription acne medication. If this medication is prescribe for you by your dermatologist, please consult with your dermatologist about switching acne medications and other treatment options.
