Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic

Minoz 50 (Minocycline) is a very good oral antibiotic/antiinflammatory for acne. I would advice that she sticks to it for a few weeks.

Along with oral minocycline, topicals like clindamycin gel for day time application and benzoyl peroxide for night time application would help in addition.
