HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the acne then it may not be due the medicines that you are having but it is due to hormone changes and it may need long term treatment but it can be begins with "Tab Doxycycline 100 mg" once in day for 10 days, later on you need to see the dermatologist for further management, hope this information may helps you, take care and have a nice day.
