[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you parents going to let your teen continue to use benzoyl peroxides now that they have found they cause cancer. Thoughts on for how long or how often? https://www.cnn.com/2024/03/06/health/benzene-acne-products-valisure/index.html[/quote] I read this yesterday with interest, as I'd just talked with my son about using benzoyl peroxides for his mild acne. But this part led me to believe typical use isn't a problem: [i] Tests involving dozens of these products suggest that when benzoyl peroxide acne treatments are stored or handled at high temperatures – such as when left in a hot car at more than 150 degrees Fahrenheit for at least 14 days – they can generate high levels of benzene, the lab announced Wednesday.[/i] That said, there are other options, such as Differin gel, that I'll steer my kids towards.[/quote]
