Can i take these medicines?
I have been suffering from acne since 3-4 yrs it wouldnt stop except it would lessen in winter so i decided to visit a dermatologist and he gave me two choices-permanent treatment which i can use to get rid of a acne by6months and temporary treatment i found it hard to believe it ll go forever after permanent treatment he assured me n told me to get a blood test and prescribed me the medicines as i have seen on the photo ..so the point is my sister has a bachelor degree in pharmacy and when she saw the medicines she started to say u shouldnt take the no. 3medicine it is contraindicated for acne and showed me some google articles so i got scared and went to ask the doctor bt he said it was ok to take those medicines and there were several patients that were cured but my sister still insists on not taking the medicines .. please someone i would be very grateful if u could give me some advice? should i start taking these medicines or not ? thank you ...i hope you would help me
Acne or pimples... Due to hormonal changes..Oily skin causes it...Common in adolescent age...May occur in adults also.. Food like Oily foods, ice cream, chocolate and sweets increase it.. Treatment depends on the grade of pimples or acne..So, please send photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Acne
It's mainly due to many reason… most of of the time it is due to hormonal changes… and some drugs are not prescribed under certain circumstances so first of all discuss the problem in detail and send me ur pics so that I can access ur severity of acne.. and it's scars
Avoid oily foods
Clean ur face many times
Don't prik acne by finger don't even touch it.
Send me pics asap
Some life style and dietary modification will also help
And do not do self medication
