do develop.

Patient
instructions are available with the product. Read them carefully
before using. Apply a thin layer to affected area at bedtime.
Use a gauze pad or cotton swab to apply the liquid. Wash hands
immediately after use. Using this medication more frequently
or in excessive amounts does not improve the results, but may
increase side effects. Avoid applying near the eyes, mouth,
or open cuts since this medication can irritate sensitive skin.
Acne may appear to worsen when the medication is first used;
continue therapy. It may take three to six weeks before the
full benefits of this medication are seen.

Immediately
after applying, the skin may feel warm or mild stinging or redness
may occur. Some peeling of the skin may occur. These effects
should subside as your skin adjusts to the medication. If they
persist or become bothersome, inform your doctor. This medicine
may also increase sun sensitivity.
