Add systemic: Like many men, the topical rx isn't sufficient though clindamycin's a great topical. Ask your physician about a systemic antibiotic such as tetracycline 500 2x/day, if you're not satisfied after one month, it's time to get with a dermatologist about accutane, which is neither pleasant nor risk-free but in my opinion worth it.

Epiduo: Epiduo is absolutely the best combintion product on the market- treats acne bumps already present and prevents the formation of new bumps- usually takes about 4-6 weeks- must continue to use after face clears to prevent recurrence of acne. Follow up at your doctor in 6 weeks if your face is still not clear of bumps. The acne scars will fade over time once new lesions stop occurring.
