  5. Ive been using Peroclin 5% for about a year now and its been working well for my acne. But recently, the cream doesnt seem to dry up like it used to its more watery. Im not sure if its because of the weather or if the cream itself has changed. If it doesnt dry, Im worried it wont work the same way. Can you suggest an alternative to Peroclin or let me know what might be going on?
