[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Im the OP. Thanks for the advice. She tried epiduo for 3 mos, and it helped a little. She just switched to retain a. I will suggest cutting out milk. Not sure she will agree. If there is no improvement, I think antibiotics are in her future.[/quote] Epidural and RetinA microgel cause a worsening of acne in first few months before clearing which is normal. My son uses epidural equivalent (adapalene gel mixed equally with 2.5 percent benzoyl peroxide) in evening and retin a gel in am. Also washes face 3 times a day with cetaphil foaming face wash or stridex pads with aloe Vera. Initially may have to use every other day with one of the products due to drying and work up till daily. You also have to be sure child is washing and applying thoroughly for this to work. Our kid used to apply and was not so thorough. Now we apply with much better results.[/quote]
