Many years ago, I experienced very bad acne as a side effect of a medication I was on. My doctor prescribed a topical cream to put on after washing my face. She said it didn't matter too much what I washed with, but something with salicylic acid would be best. After washing, I massaged the lotion, Benzeclin (spelling?), into my skin. The product was effective because it contained benzoyl peroxide to help control the oil on my skin, and a mild antibiotic to help kill the germs on my skin and in my pores before they developed into full fledged acne. Obviously, you need a prescription to get the Benzeclin, but it's pretty tame stuff. Most doctors (as in, you can prolly just ask your GP, you don't need a dermatologist) would be happy to call in a prescription for you to give it a try. Good luck!
