Hi. Thanks for posting your concern at HCM. It is not advisable to use Dettol because it can cause irritation. General measures: -Use a mild cleanser like cetaphil twice daily -Avoid all creams, moisturisers, sunscreens that you may be using for the time being till you are on anti acne treatment. -Avoid taking facials. -Avoid picking your acne. -Use an Anti-dandruff shampoo since acne is worsened by dandruff. Specific treatment: Topical treatment is a valuable adjunct to any form of acne treatment. -Topical gels/creams containing topical antibiotics like either clindamycin 1%/ benzoyl peroxide 2.5%/ Nadifloxacin or combination of these during the day time. -Topical retinoids like Adapalene0.1%/ Tretinoin 0.025%/ Azaleic acid 10%/ Azaleic acid 20% at the night time either alone or in combination with clindamycin gel (pre-formulated combinations are available on prescription). -I would advice that you see a dermatologist who might feel the need to start oral antibiotics like Doxycycline or Azithromycin for 4-6 weeks, if your acne is inflammatory take care regards
