Today Show Video On Acne Medications

A comparison of three methods of acne medications. ProActiv, OXY, and prescription. Basically, OXY (or over the counter) works just as well as ProActive, and costs 1/10 the price.

Taking Oral Acne Medication

Besides lotions and potions there are many other ways to treat acne. We’ve all seen the creams and special elixirs advertised all over late-night television.

But there are several oral medications that can help you with your acne problems. It’s just a question of figuring out which acne medication is best for you. Now keep in mind some of these Oral medications may come with small side effects but nothing severe. As long as you check and make sure that there are no hazardous ingredients in the medication then taking it will be just fine.

So where can you find Oral acne medication? Well if you don’t need anything serious like something prescribed by dermatologist then you should be able to go to your local Walgreen’s and find something on the shelf there. They always have several pills that you can take that promise to help you with your acne problems. One of the more popular ones comes with a face rinser. But they emphasize the importance of taking the pill along with the various other treatments that come along with it.

I don’t want to get into some of the specific names for these medications, but as mentioned earlier if you walk into any health food store or any major drugstore like Walgreen’s you’ll be able to find several of these Oral medications. Of course there is no guarantee that these medications will work. But they’re supposed to help the skin stay healthy and usually contain a lot of vitamin E which is supposed to be good for the skin. So go ahead and try for yourself, but don’t let this be one of the only ways you use to treat your acne.
