Is It Safe To Have Verdeso Foam And Epiduo Gel At The Same Time?

default
Posted on Thu, 30 Oct 2014
Question: Today I was given samples of Verdeso foam and Epiduo gel. My instruction was to use both medicines for the treatment of a Mohs procedure done in March 2014. My scar is still red and not healing. My concern is whether I can use both drugs together at the same time? Thank you very much!

Verdeso foam is 0.05 % low dose desonide which is a corticosteroid by nature and they are anti-inflammatory mediators. Epiduo is an acne agent consisting of a adapalene and benzyl peroxide. Just make sure it does not touch the eyes or lips or vagina or any mucous membrane.

Rest their use is safe together. There is no harm in using them together.
