If you find a cream that's 2.5% Benzoyl Peroxide (or however you spell it), it will do the same. Neutrogena makes a small tube cream that's 2.5 percent. It's supposed to be for "spot treating" but I use it all over.
I've used PanOxyl in the past, and liked it. The only problem is that here in the US, it's only available through a prescription from a dermatologist.

The Neutrogena cream would work well for "spot treating," since that brand tends to be not as harsh on your skin.
