Clinical
This is an over-the-counter topical gel containing sulfur, marketed under the FDA's established monograph rules for acne products. Sulfur is commonly used in skin care products for acne and other skin conditions, where it functions to help reduce bacteria and shed dead skin cells on the affected area. The gel form is applied directly to the skin. This product type does not require individual FDA approval before marketing, as it follows the agency's published standards for OTC acne ingredients.
