Hi,

Diane 35 is a combination of two ingredients: cyproterone and ethinyl estradiol and it is used to treat certain severe types of acne in women that have not been successfully treated with antibiotics and other treatments.

You did not mention why you stopped taking Diane 35. You should have consulted your doctor before stopping the medicine.

For acne, you should wash your face with soap 3-4 times daily and avoid oily and spicy food or you can consult a dermatologist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Prabhash Verma, General & Family Physician
