For anyone with moderate to bad acne but not willing to take the plunge and take those pills that dry you out so bad (cant remember the damn name!) you may want to visit your doc and ask for this: Clendamycin antibiotic cream, applied morning and afternoon, after washing. And Retin-A gel, at the stronger .01 %. I had used differin for a long time with no success, and retin a at .0025% didnt do much better. This combination is working great, especially on my back, it's almost gone. Some of you may already know about this but for those who haven't, give it a shot.
