How do I take Differin?

To reduce the Differin retail price, use our Differin coupons or a savings card when you buy your medication in your local pharmacy. Differin comes as a tube of gel or cream to be applied topically. Differin should only be applied to clean, dry skin. Apply a pea-sized amount to the affected areas and gently rub it in once daily in the evenings unless otherwise specified by your doctor. Wash your hands after each application. Use a non-comedogenic moisturizer about 30 minutes after application to reduce irritation. Avoid sun exposure while undergoing treatment with retinoid medications. If your condition doesn’t show improvement within 12 weeks, consult with your doctor.

What if I forget to take a dose of Differin?

If you miss an application of Differin, apply it as soon as you remember. If it’s almost time for you next dose, skip the missed dose and continue on your regular schedule. Do not apply two doses at once to try to catch up. If you are considering applying Differin in the morning because you missed a dose, be sure to avoid sun exposure.

What happens if I overdose on Differin?

Overdose on Differin is not likely. Excessive use will result in severe skin irritation. If you or someone you know accidently ingests Differin, contact the Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222.
