Using Betnovet On Face For Eruptions. Have Whiteheads And Pus. Used Nadibact Without Relief
Hi Doctor, I am 26 yrs female. I was using betnovet on my whole face. After a while i used to notice that my eruptions didnt reduce. Instead white heads and pus forming heads are comping out. So my doc advised me to use Nadibact gel twice a day. I am using it for two weeks and more and more eruptions are appearing. Please advise.

Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
It seems due to use of betnovate your acne flared up. Betnovate is a potent steroid with a tendency to cause or increase acne lesions.
To treat the same
you may take tablet azithromycin or doxycycline
continue nadibact application twice in a day
use adapalene gel in night
use a benzoyl peroxide based face wash like perowash or brevoxyl.
get your whiteheads and blackheads extracted.
Hopefully in couple of weeks, your lesion would subside.
Take care
