Long story short. Went to derm on April 7th so been on oral antiobiotic since which is 1 month and about 5 days and two different acne prescription gels one for 2 weeks and this last new one for 3 weeks. My face is horrid and worse and gets worse by the minute. Everyone says it needs time but my gut just feels like this is not right. What would you all do? Would you stop all this prescription stuff? Even thinking of just going on the pill. OR stick it out for the 6-8 week up to 3 month range like the so called experts say you should do. All my skincare is gentle products from the derm. I did stop Zithromax about a week ago thinking that could be contributing to problem but no other new meds other than what the derm prescribed.

Help!

This is just a thought....have you started or reintroduced ADEK or ABDEK?

I found I get outbreaks if I dont have them in my system & take them again.

Just a thought....

The only med that ever helped my acne was Accutane and I haven't taken it in years, since I was trying to get pregnant and then pregnant. None of the gels or antibiotics cured my acne. On a side note, Linezolid really makes me break out. My doc thinks I could be allergic. Maybe there is some med you are slightly allergic to.
