Proactive contains benzoyl peroxide, which is one of the most effective treatments for acne. It is only 2.5% benzoyl peroxide, which is mild enough not to irritate the skin on the face, but strong enough to treat acne.
The answer is actually not that straightforward unless we talk about the active ingredients in acne treatments. Most over the counter acne treatments contain either benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. Benzoyl peroxide is used as an anti-microbial to inhibit the bacteria associated with acne, and salicylic acid is used to exfoliate the over growth of skin cells that block the pores. To be effective, they must be used on a consistent basis since they are preventative treatments. They should not be used together; use one in the morning and one at night. Of the two, benzoyl peroxide is the better treatment. There are several facial washes that contain benzoyl peroxide. However, when used in a wash, the wash must be left on for several minutes to do any good. And you really just end up washing it down the drain. It is better to wash your face with a mild cleanser such as Cetaphil or Eucerin, then apply a benzoyl peroxide gel or cream that is meant to be left on. Many people like Proactiv because its formulation makes it feel more like a cosmetic than a medicine. But any label that claims to treat acne usually contains benzoyl peroxide, since strict labeling guidelines must be adhered to. Since acne treatments can be irritating, look for one with 2.5% benzoyl peroxide, the mildest, and work your way up if you need to.
