Serious Rx: If topical benzoyl peroxide as tolerated, topical retinoic acid and/or topical salicylic acid have not cleared you in two weeks, get with your physician to discuss what prescription options can be added. The topicals are still the basis for your treatment; they are not pleasant but they're your friends. Acne is unrelated to hygiene or lifestyle but must be managed until it self-cures.
