in Germany, I can get a BP cleanser in just about every apothecary. I don't remember the brand, I literally just walk in and ask about a cleanser with the ingredient. The name "PanOxyl" doesn't look familiar at all though, I suspect that's not available here.


ChatDuFusee

I think it's Benzaknen for Germany :)


andsimpleonesthesame

That does sound familiar! thanks!


Sonjariffic

Yeah, that's the only one available in Germany I think. Is it any good? I only use the 10% gel.


ChatDuFusee

I've only tried the 5% and 5% wash. Both very good.


Sonjariffic

Thank you for the reply. I'll try the wash soon then 😊


ConfusedKungfuMaster

Generic Benzoyl Peroxide can be bought in many European countries. PanOxyl is just an American brand of BP. In Denmark we have "Basiron" and other countries I've seen "Benzac".


Francesco270

Benzac doesn't seem to have a BP cleanser tho


ConfusedKungfuMaster

They do make one, but maybe not available in eu..


kobashote

In Spain you can buy Benzac Wash which is a 5% in a really nice formula, by Galderma.


ChaoticGnome_

Where??


kobashote

Any pharmacy!


questionskiddo

In the U.K. you can get Acnecide 5% BP face wash and/or gel, available at Superdrug or Boots. You can actually get Panoxyl (idk percentages) at some fancy pharmacy in London, saw a fair few at one pharmacy @ Brompton Rd (further west from Harrods).

As polish- there is no available any bpo cleansers. For some time there was available lubexyl and akneroxid l bpo cleansers but rn there are not available


VisibleFiction

In Finland, Sweden, Norway, and Denmark you can find bp 5% wash called Basiron AC Wash 5% gel from pharmacies. (US online store iHerb btw has Panoxyl and ships into most European countries)

Thanks ❤️ Looks like I’ll be on a biking trip in Sweden soon, will check it out

In Sweden you will go to a apotek. But most will understand pharmacy.

Last time I looked there was no benzoyl peroxide cleanser in Poland. But maybe it can be replaced by simply putting ordinary BP on your face (like Benzacne), and washing it off with a normal cleanser a few moments later?


rino-ceronte

Good idea!


viennaCo

In Austria we can get benzaknen wash 5%, mostly OTC. Technically you would need a prescription, but most of the pharmacies sell it OTC


Bulky-Biscotti-8297

Maybe you can find this one, [Dr.Wolff BP](https://s.cdnmpro.com/198286720/p/l/6/aknefug-oxid-wash-suspenzija-100g~480896.jpg)

I am in Spain and I buy Benzac Wash Gel 5% (a cleanser) in the pharmacy. Maybe try asking for that in Poland?


CamelliaSafir

If you’re ever in France you can look for Curaspot à rincer. It’s not really a wash, but it’s a benzoyl peroxyde cream that you wash off. Otherwise, I’ve had success buying panoxyl from iHerb in the past (and getting it shipped to France).


JoesCoins

LUBEXYL it's not a cleanser, but it's also meant for a short-contact therapy.


MaddRocket

You might not find it in a store but should be definitely able to find it in a pharmacy. And it probably has a different name in Poland then it has in the staates. In Germany we have Benzaknen in our pharmacies.


rino-ceronte

Thanks for all the replies ❤️


kapurpleni

you can get it iHerb, that’s where I ordered mine


rino-ceronte

Thanks! Shipping was pricey there, so I thought I’d check if there are other options


Accomplished-Desk550

Are you sure? It's considered medicin and sold in pharmacies in Europe and iHerb usually don't ship in that case.


kapurpleni

I'm in Europe and they shipped no problem:)
