Im 20, never had acne before and i was taking Predinsone for medical purposes and it broke my face out horribly, I have small bumps, i went to a dermatologist and he prescribed me erythromycin and benzoyl peroxide topical gel and i feel like its not helping my face. Do you know what else i can use to clear my bumps?

hello,
pls continue using benzyl peroxide cream and erythromycin cream as suggested by your dermatologist for next 1 month minimum. take tab.doxy once daily for next 1 month. Drink lemon juice daily. Donnot use powder over affected area.
wash your face not more than thrice daily. You can consult your dermatologist in person for follow-up and further management.
