Acne comedones

2017-03-02 18:36:16
My dermatologist suggested me the course where I was supposed to take SOTRET 20mg capsule for 5months. For my bad, I didn't knew much about the capsule and once my skin was okay. I stopped it by taking only 2months.. now, after 4months in matter of one week I have severe acne( similar to rashes). My doctor told me I shouldn't have stopped the course in between and I have to start again. They have prescribed the same capsule with same dosage again. My question here is , is this safe to take that capsule again? To what dosage I can take it?
