Acne woes!
Joy:
I too am experiencing the Tykerb acne woes. I'm on the teach trial since middle of May. I look like a 14 year old with whiteheads all over my face and neck! It has been frustrating, but I'm willing to tolerate it. I will tell you I had to go on Prednisone/antibiotics last week for some health issues and my face has really cleared up. I am assuming it's the Prednisone?! It's the best my face has looked in 2 1/2 months. It's probably only short lived, but I'll take it!
Is there anything that can be prescribed to at least calm the acne down? I will address the next time I'm in with my dr.
