Whether Duac can cause headache and photosensitivity?
Can I experience headaches in the front of my head and sensitivity to light when using Duac gel? My son has been using this drug for over 2 months and has had a headache all the time for 1.5 weeks. In the leaflet, as side effects, it is written that such symptoms can occur, but no one has written about it yet, and I have already browsed a lot of forums about this gel. Please let me know. Thank you in advance.

Headache is a common side effect of Duac. This means that it may affect up to 1 in 10 patients using the preparation. Photosensitivity has been reported at a similar frequency.
If the ailments are bothersome and do not go away, I encourage you to consult a doctor. You can also take advantage of teleconsultation, e.g. via the Gdziepolek.pl portal:

I also encourage you to report adverse drug reactions. Reporting side effects allows you to increase control over medicines available on the market. We wrote more about how and why to report side effects in the article:
