Need stronger Rx: I'm sorry you weren't started on effective medication for you acne years ago. It's a very serious personal and professional liability for a young adult. If you are not getting a good enough from retin A (tretinoin) or benzoyl peroxide, get with your personal physician and ask about the oral contraceptive pill, spironolactone, or a topical or systemic antibiotic to add.
