Summary
This is a multi-centre, open-label, non-comparative study to evaluate the long-term safety
and efficacy profile of Adapalene/Benzoyl Peroxide Gel.
Subjects are evaluated at Baseline, Weeks 1 and 2, and Months 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12.
Safety is evaluated by spontaneous reports of Adverse Events (AEs), the Local Tolerability
Assessment (Erythema, Scaling, Dryness, and Stinging/Burning), routine laboratory testing
