🚨 BREAKING NEWS: A second study has confirmed initial reports of #benzene presence and formulation in #benzoylperoxide acne products—this time, with testing conducted at room temperature. Results demonstrated that 34% of 111 tested products, equivalent to 38 products, contained benzene levels above the FDA's 2 parts per million limit. "For colleagues with questions or concerns, I encourage them first to read carefully the primary research articles. Then, the single most immediate step they could take to mitigate concerns about using benzoyl peroxide products or patient fears is to encourage refrigeration of the medicine at all times, replace the medicine every ~ 12 weeks, and avoid storage in or near heat and sunlight," Christopher Bunick, MD, PhD, told Dermatology Times. https://lnkd.in/gyzjuScS
