Acne problems. started when i took medication. any help really appreciated, thanks!, what to do?

Treat it: If topical benzoyl peroxide hasn't cleared you in two weeks, get with your personal physician. He/she will add prescription-strength Rx. I trust this is real acne and not a drug eruption. Best wishes.
