Not alone: Never use just an antibiotic (in this case a tetracycline) to control acne from any cause. Along with topical benzoyl peroxide 5% 2x/day, this will usually get you clear. If you're taking glucocorticoids for treatment of illness, your physician can guide you. If Anabolic steroids for bodybuilding, hope you'll choose "natural" instead -- former 'roid users i know are sorry. Best wishes.

Why brand?: Generic cheaper. Why steroid? Topical or oral steroid? Which steroid? Best treatment depends to the answers to these questions. Maybe Doxycycline or Minocycline in low dose, maybe combined with other things depending on skin condition. If acne vulgaris in adult woman, best result from spironolactone. See a dermatologist.
