Question

I've been given doxycycline and lactic acid bacillus for my acne and I'm really unsure about how many capsules I'm supposed to take each day. Could you help me understand the right dosage and the best times to take them?

I've been dealing with these recurring abscesses for the past few months, and it's getting pretty frustrating. Some of them are really painful and take days to heal, while others get better faster.

Should I be concerned about how frequently they occur?
