I have acne problem and my dr prescribed purbac which i have been on for the past month. my skin got better but the acne is returning again. the purbac was prescribed for 4 months. is it part of the process?

Not unusual: Acne especially in older adults is a difficult problem. It often requires modifications in a skin maintenance program & medication changes. The skin bacteria involved in your acne may have developed a resistance to the purbac and a call to your doc for guidance would be in order.
