What can my teenage son use as an alternative to oratane / reocutane? he used it for 2 months, after testing his liver, and after that he had an enlarged liver. is there not something i can buy over the counter that really works for acne?

Acne: If he is a candidate for that medication than over the counter medication won’t help well
