Review of Stri-Dex Power Pads, 28-Count Boxes (Pack of 3)

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Stupid Stridex (parent company Blistex) discontinued these pads - the only OTC benzoyl peroxide pad.

You obviously need a replacement.Here's what you do (and what I did two weeks ago): go to a dermatologist (or, if you don't have insurance, go to a CVS minuteclinic or Walgreens take care clinic) and ask him or her specifically for a prescription for "Triaz 3% pads, 60 count box."When you fill the prescription, ask for the generic - it's the same thing, also at 3%.Again to repeat, the brand name stuff is Triaz, but ask for the generic.Be sure to ask for 60 pads, otherwise they'll give you just 30. My co-pay was $15 for 60 pads, it'll last me 2 months, which isn't bad considering these pads at retail were about $7/month.It's just another hassle.

I even emailed Stridex about the fact they pulled the only OTC benzoyl peroxide pad.They didn't give me any explanation, only a goofy apology.I hope my suggestion works out for everyone.
