Brief Summary  

Acne is an extremely common skin condition, which has a major social and psychological impact  on young  patients [3]. Retinoids have been a mainstay of anti-acne therapy. Older generation agents are slowly replaced by newer generation ones like tazarotene and adapalene as they exhibit lower toxicologic risk and less side effects and they effectively reduce the comedones and inflammatory lesions. Unlike Tretinoin, these are newer agents are specific for a subset of retinoic acid receptors exhibiting lower toxicologic risk and producing fewer side effects.This study tthrows light on effectiveness of topical Adapalene gel- 0.1% and Tazarotene gel-0.05% in order to find out a suitable option with lesser side effects for acne patients.
