Hello, Sir.
I can understand your concern.
Acne Rosacea needs to be treated with both topical and systemic therapy.

Likewise for systemic therapy, I prescribe oral pills of DOXYCYCLINE 40mg PO qAM on empty stomach for 21 days.
Please check with your physician, if he shares my view and if can prescribe these drugs to you.
