The clinical efficacy and tolerance of a combination of benzoyl peroxide 5% and miconazole 2%, Acnidazil, for the treatment of facial acne vulgaris have been compared with those of tretinoin 0.05% in a double-blind study with 40 patients during 12 weeks. The combination of benzoyl peroxide and miconazole gave improvement in 82% of 22 patients, compared to tretinoin which gave improvement in 50% of 18 comparable patients. The difference is significant. Also, side-effects were significantly less in the benzoyl-miconazole group than in the tretinoin group.
