  Azone/Laurocapram 1-Dodecylazacycloheptan-2-one - experience with it used as a penetration enhancer?

  Curious as to whether anyone has experience with this molecule, it seems quite effective at low doses at increasing penetration of  a wide variety of drugs including steroids,antibiotics and antiviral agents. 

  Thoughts for use in anti acne otc drugs with either salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide?

  Let’s see if there are any good reasons not to use it first, one paper anecdotally mentioned risk of accumulation in the skin.
