The FDA is warning that certain topical acne products can cause rare serious allergic reactions or very severe irritation. You should stop using these products and seek medical help right away if a reaction occurs, such as trouble breathing or swelling of the face. These side effects are more severe than the adverse effect already listed on the products as warnings, such as irritation, minor swelling and redness of the skin. The FDA is not sure what the cause is yet. It could be from salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, the inactive ingredients, or a combination of the three.
