Adapalene has some great benefits:
You can buy over-the-counter adapalene at 0.1% gel strength. Higher concentrations require a prescription.

Oftentimes, Methylparaben is combined with other parabens to help increase the shelf life.
The safety of Methylparaben is currently being studied. While ongoing studies are looking into the safety of parabens, the results have been very mixed. Some studies have not found Methylparaben to be harmful.
