A member asked:
Is it a good idea to try using everything at once to get rid of acne?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Evidence-based Rx: You can't cure acne but you can manage it until it self-cures -- and it is always manageable. If topical benzoyl perxoide 5% 2x/day doesn't clear you in two weeks, your physician can help you find the mildest of the several prescription-strength meds to clear you. Use the pop remedies only as adjuncts. Best wishes.
