See a dermatologist: Tretinoin is useful for acne but is irritating, especially in the beginning. You can get a milder preparation and use less frequently. You can use a moisturizer. Combining erythromycin only increases the expense and irritation. Suggest you change to generic TRETINOIN CREAM .025%. Begin just 3x a week. Use a cream for dry skin. Avoid other meds. Face will look better soon.
