Benoquin contains monobenzone, a potent depigmenting agent intended for final depigmentation in extensive vitiligo under dermatologist supervision. It can cause permanent loss of pigmentation and is not a cosmetic fairness or treatment for ordinary dark spots.
Historically approved U.S. labeling restricts use to final depigmentation in disseminated vitiligo affecting more than half the body surface. Do not use for melasma, freckles, acne marks or routine skin lightening.
Monobenzone can destroy pigment-producing melanocytes, sometimes leading to permanent, irregular depigmentation beyond the application area.
Irreversible pigment loss, irritation and marked photosensitivity are major concerns. It should never be used as a substitute for hydroquinone. Specialist oversight and sun protection are necessary. U.S. regulatory records report the historic Benoquin product was discontinued, so manufacturer-specific current regulatory status must be checked.
See Cureiva’s discussion of acne and dark marks for conditions that require different treatment. Monobenzone is not suitable for cosmetic pigmentation.
