Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello Shami,

You said you suffer from acne. You took tretment without response. I would like to give few things about acne. Acne may be in different forms like white comedones,black comedones,inflammatory papules,nodules,cysts..etc. and remember acne is a relapsing disease and might be exacerbated by factors like stress,anxiety,sleeplessness,oily food,dandruff,drugs like pills,steroid...

I would like to give few suggestions to get relief from acne as below..

- avoid all factors which might exacerbate,as suggested above
- take antibiotics like azithromycine or minocycline in proper dose
- tab isotretinoin 5 mg low dose might cause improvement
- apply clindamycine gel or benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel on the lesions in morning
- adapalene gel may be applied at night
- cleanse the face with antiseptic face wash like acmed

You should avoid acne related anxiety and tension. Have patience to get early result.

I think,this would be helpful to you. Still consult dermatologist.

Thanks.

Dr. Ilyas Patel MD
