FDA has approved Sol-Gen Technologies’ Twyneo (tretinoin/benzoyl peroxide) cream 0.1%/3% to treat acne in adults and pediatric patients age 9 and older. The company [says](https://www.marketwatch.com/press-release/sol-gel-technologies-announces-fda-approval-of-twyneor-2021-07-27?tesla=y&ref=fdaweb.com) Twyneo uses its patented technology to entrap tretinoin and benz oyl peroxide within silica-based microcapsules to stabilize tretinoin from being degraded by benzoyl peroxide and to slowly release each of the active drug ingredients over time to provide a favorable efficacy and safety profile.
