Suggest Treatment For Rashes And Whiteheads After Using Proactive

I started Proactive earlier this week. I developed a rash after day 2 and stopped using it. It has been almost 2 days since I stopped using the products, the rash is slightly better and doesn t hurt as badly, but now almost every pore on my chin is breaking out in itchy whiteheads. How can I treat the whiteheads and how long do you think they will last? Also, should the rash go away on its own or should I seek treatment from my doctor? Thank you!

Hi, it seems you had a reaction to the medication, I think you should see a dermatologist, they can give you a medication for your acne that has combination of an Anti-inflammatory and also Acne med and prevent the reaction. Also you might need Antibiotics for the Acne.
