How do you care your acne?

Scientific Rx: All acne can be managed. Start with topical benzoyl peroxide. If this is inadequate, get with your physician. The next step is often topical Clindamycin and/or a retinoic acid derivative topically. If this isn't good enough after a month, a systemic antibiotic such as tetracycline 500 2x/day often helps, or start this at once if it's on the trunk. Home remedies fail; strong rx from dermatologists.
