Probably not: Good hygeine and use of benzoyl peroxide , retin a, (tretinoin) and oral Minocycline remain high on the list ..

Adjunct only: It will probably not clear you and i'd be pleasantly surprised if it even helped. Zinc is likely to upset your stomach, and if you take a lot, you can make yourself copper deficient. How about using an evidence based regimen instead? Benzoyl peroxide is not pleasant but it's your first choice; if you're not clear in two weeks, get with your primary care physician.
