Sorry to hear that. It's must been hard for you. From my experience, if the meds irritates your skin, STOP it!
My derm prescribed me Clenia and Benzamycin. Eventhough this combination irritated my skin badly, I still faithfully applied them for about a month hoping they would work one day. I ended up with the worst face ever in my life! My face was terribly dry, red, and painful. Lumps covered my entire face! Entire means 90%! It was a nightmare! I finally stopped using Benzamycin, and changed to Clenia and Azelex about a week ago. I already see great improvement. All the pimples are coming down, and my skin feels much soft and smooth now.
If the meds doesn't do any good for your other than causing side effects, stop it and try something else. Chins up, and stay positive.
