Pimples, Taking Antibiotic, Using Deriva Cms Gel

Hello doctor, Currently i am facing problem with pimples on my face . I am not sure why it occurs since I tried two new face creams recently. Because one month before I had a clean face without pimples and marks. I consulted Dermatologist and she prescribed me some antibiotic medicine and Deriva Ms gel and I am using it for past 15 days. Still I could not see any good result. Please help me to get out of this problem.

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Persistent acne is a hormonal related disorder in most of the cases. The treatment takes as much as six months to show a considerable effect. Regular monitoring of the treatment is needed by the dermatologist. You need to stick to your treatment and get your hormonal evaluation done to find the cause.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
