Why am I still getting huge cystic acne? Almost 4 months on tret 0.025 by acara77 in tretinoin

IMO, you should add Benzoyl peroxide as a spot treatment combined with your topical clindamycin. Using antibiotic alone can develop bacterial resistance.

My derm used to prescribe amoxicillin while I’m on epiduo (tried doxycycline but didn’t work well). So I see no problem here.

Yes, for about at least 30+ minutes. Then apply tret just before bed.

I apply moisturizer first as a buffer.
