Retinal is not very stable, just use adapalene 0.1 (OTC in many countries) or tret

Way too weak, would reccomend using taz over tret (taz is more stronger + it doesn’t have as much as negative effects as tret) try 0.05 for 6 Monthes

what do you mean by not stable
Highly reactive chemical structure. Very Photosensitive and oxidizes fast.

Youll need to make sure you find the right product that encapsulates it.

But why would you do that? 0.1 retinal is weak ah, did you mean 1%? 2%?

you may be mistaking retinal for retinol

there’s not a market for 2% retinal g, if there is it’s most likely a false label, even so at that point might aswell hop on tret or taz saying that it will be prescription only.
Thats exactly what i am saying
Is 0.1 adapalene prescription in your contry?

yes, i will wait till my retinal finishes and go from there, only been on it for 2 weeks so not enough time to determine if it’s useless, i also use 10% azelaic so if neither don’t do anything i will try to get my hands on adapalene and 15% azelaic
