Acne

**Brian** · 05-21-2002, 06:15 PM

I finished a cycle a couple of months ago and just lately have been experiencing acne problems. I know this is common but being the summer is their anyway to get rid of it and prevent it. I just started another cycle not even a week ago made up of - prop,enethate,fina,wini,clen and want to look my best.
Thanks.

Boy the Prop/Fina/Enth is gonna bring it out:-). I shouldn't say that cause mines not too bad, just a couple of bumps thus far.

Vitamin B-5, Acutane, Tetracycline, and then there is always exfoilating(sp?) scrub. The Tetracycline may have complications anf the Accutane is VERY harsh on the liver.

I agree, when my face broke out on AS, I used an anti bacterial. first tetracycline and Ponds exfoliator for the oil and pores. It worked like a charm after I ran out I used a Anti bacterial face wash it worked almost as good. Just my experiences ...might be worse for you.

Where can I find these things? Drug Strore?

You can get all at a drug store, but some apre prescription only. See a dermatolagist for a 'script.

Q: Can I get Acne for Using Anabolic Steroids?

A: Yes. Steroids can cause acne. Some people experience little to no acne while on steroids; other people can get quite severe acne. Like most side effects, the larger the doses you take, the greater the chance / seriousness of the side effects.

EXCESS wrote a great FAQ on acne treatments for steroid users.

Tetracycline is probably the most prescribed acne med out there, its even in birth control. But stridex makes a anti bac. foaming face wash that works well, and Ponds makes the exfoliator, both at any supermarket. Tanning really helps too, bad for you skin, but it clears up acne.
