A member asked:
I used 0.025% tretinoin and clindamycin gel which worked great for a while, but i started breaking out after 2 years so i started minocycline and tretinoin 0.05%. should i start off 3 times a week with the 0.05 tret and use my old gel on other days?

Much too complex an issue for a quick answer from a forum like this. Discuss with your doctor, preferably a dermatologist. Good luck.
