Sugegst Treatment To Cure Severe Acne On Face

Hi, I have been suffering from severe acne on my face. One dermatologist suggested me using wysolone 5 mg for 5 days and clarbact 250 mg for 5 days(2 times a day). After this dosage doxt s 100mg (once a dAy) for 10 days. And he gave DAcne gel to apply on pimples every night. After this treatment doctor suggested me using supradyn tablets every morning for 20 days and doxt s 100 mg, every night for 20 days along with the application of DAcne gel every night. My question is, Are these medicines safe??? I heard from one of my friends that these are steroids, which would affect my health. As long as I use these medicines pimples are off my face. Once I stop these they are back. I m really worried. Please help me. !

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it Wysolone is a steroid while clarbact is antibiotic azithromycin, doxt s is also antibiotic doxyxycline and DAcne gel is antibiotic ointment..
Supradyn is a multivitamin composition.
As you are given Wysolone only for 5 days and other medication to proceed with you need not to worry as these medications are safe and you can very well continue with them..
You can also add up remedies like washing face with salicylic acid containing facewash, applying benzoyl peroxide gel, exfoliating your skin twice a week.
Do cool compresses over the pimples..
You can also avoid oily food and take a nutritious diet and drink plenty of water..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
