Hello thank you for writing us here.
You can use doxacycline and cetrizine for a Couple of weeks for the permanent treatment of acne.
Also make sure your hygiene is good. Wash your clothes properly and make sure you take shower at least twice a day but don't take shower after workout. The sweat pores are open and when it comes in contact with water, they get infected. Let the sweat dry first then you can take shower. Wait for at least 30 minutes after workout for taking shower. You'll be alright in couple of weeks.
God bless you
Best regards,
