Need advice on what is the the best treatment for getting rid of acne?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Benzoyl peroxide: This is available over the counter and is the first and only non-prescription remedy you should try. If you do not have good results after two weeks, get with your physician. Steps up may include topical clindamycin, a topical retinoic acid derivative, a systemic antibiotic or a dermatology referral.
