Proactiv will not tr?
Proactiv will not treat lupus skin lesions; Proactiv is a treatment for acne. The active ingredient is benzoyl peroxide. Although benzoyl peroxide is useful to treat acne and safe for people with lupus, care should be taken. Benzoyl peroxide can be irritating to the skin and photosensitizing, thus risking potential lupus flares with sun exposure. The dose of benzoyl peroxide in Proactiv is lower than that in some other formulations, but adequate sunscreen is still imperative prior to sun exposure, especially for people with lupus.
