   Need Help... (Acne board)

27th February 2006
I am 22 years old, a male and have mild-moderate acne. I have been on the same routine for about 6 months now. First thing I do when I wake up is wash my face with Dove soap, then I apply Benzaclin, and last but not least I take a 20mg Doxycycline pill. Then about 5:00 at night b4 I go to my girlfriends house I take a shower and wash my face with Dove Soap again. I don't do anything after this. Then about 11 or 12 I wash my face again with dove soap and apply a lotion called Klaron. Then i take another 20mg Doxycycline pill, and go to sleep. Then when I wake up I do the whole routine again. I seemed to have my acne under control the last few months...Meaning I would get get a few pimples a week, but nothing too serious. However, for the last 3 weeks I have had at least 8 zits on my face every day. This is the worst I looked in years. Do you think it is time for a new routine? I was thinking about going on Minocycline and other topicals. I go to see my derm next week. I am getting so angry lately and snap at the littlest things. Do you think maybe i've become so immuned to the Doxy that it's not working anymore? Any advice would help so much. Thank you for reading this, I really need help :confused:
