Could I be allergic to benzoyl peroxide?

If I am allergic to hydrogen peroxide will I be allergic to benzoyl peroxide?

  • I am looking for a treatment for acne, but I cant use salicylic acid (Pro-Active and the like) and I am allergic to hydrogen peroxide, as well as Benzoin (surgery scrub stuff). HELP :-)

  • Answer:

    Allergy is a protein reaction, and hydrogen peroxide is NOT a protein. Thus one CAN'T be 'allergic' to it.
