Will Clindamycin/ben Gel And Paleo Diet Help To Get Rid Of Acne?
My daughter has fought acne for the past few years. She is now 17 and its the worst it has ever been. It is now itching acne and the doctor prescribed her Clindamy/ben 1-5% gel. WE are also changing her diet to paleo diet. Should these 2 things help get rid of it?

Hi
While both of those should help, a more effective treatment would be doxycycline 100 mg twice a day for three weeks so she should ask her doctor about that
