Skin Burns?

Okay, I bought Tretinoin and Duac Topical Gel for my acne. I wash my face every night with a bar of Clearasil soap and let it dry for a few mins and then put Tretinoin on and go to sleep and in then in the morning I put water on my face and dry it and then put Duac on my face and then I put it on in the afternoon. But I wake up with dry skin and it burns.I put moisturizer on it and it still burns and I put ice on it too. So what should I do?

Its also leaving red patches on my skin.

Well, Tretinoin is the acid form of vitamin A. When used, dryness of the affected skin may occur. More sensitive patients may also experience redness, scaling, itching, and burning. It is best to gradually increase the frequency and amount of tretinoin application to allow your skin to adjust. Heed your doctors advice when beginning a round of treatment.

Since DUAC is a prescription drug I would call your doctor and inform him of the symptoms you are having. The doctor may change your prescription or give you a moisturizing cream that may better serve you.
