Adapalene, with a molecular formula of C28H28O3, is a white or off-white powder at room temperature and is insoluble in water or ethanol. In 2016, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved Adapalene as an over-the-counter acne drug that can help unclog pores and control oil. Compared with retinoic acid and isotretinoin, Adapalene has the advantages of less irritation and fewer side effects.
