just cause you consider something better doesn't render the other thing useless

Well if a superior product exist the inferor product has no use case making it, useless, since it has no use

By your logic everything is useless the second something better exists. Tolerability and price are use cases, and tretinoin wins on both

Tazarotene is as irritating as tret if not less irritating, about price, tazarotene 0.1% is 7$ a tube and lasts you around 3 months if used everyday

If you cant afford that i’m sorry bro

$7 or not your still conflating “better” with “useless.” If taz is more effective but also more irritating for some people, then tretinoin objectively still has a use case. You'd have to prove there's literally zero scenario where tretinoin is preferable and not just that taz is stronger

Tazarotene was observed to have greater efficacy and comparable tolerability and to be a cost-effective alternative to tretinoin 0.1% microsponge gel.

Once-daily tazarotene 0.1 % gel versus once-daily tretinoin 0.1 % microsponge gel for the treatment of facial acne vulgaris: a double-blind randomized trial - PubMed

The efficacy and tolerability of tazarotene 0.1% gel and tretinoin 0.1% microsponge gel were evaluated in a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, parallel-group study in patients with mild-to-moderate inflammatory facial acne vulgaris. A total of 169 patients were randomized to once-daily...

I would go as far as saying that tazarotene is less irritating than tret since different vehicles were used, microsphere gel is a slow release gel made to be less irritating

Better and faster results, both dirt cheap, same irritation if not less, i can conclude saying that tazarotene is the superior product

Debate me

Which is cheaper

 

[nwed]

Which is cheaper

Tret is cheaper but bot are dirt cheap

Tret is 1.5$ for 3 months while taz is 7$ for 3 months

Correct it's less irritating. Many do not go through purge cyles like they do on retin-a. Taz is S tier

Also Taz has shown to be usefull on acne scars

those who use tretinoin in gel format get nuked lol but you can get away with it with taz.

I know its not recommended, but some days I forget sunscreen with taz and 0 irritation at all. with tret forget about it.
