I've been dealing with acne and my dermatologist recommended a doxycycline lactic bacillus tablet for 60 days to take at night. I'm just wondering, is it actually safe to be on this medication for such a long duration?
Using doxycycline for 60 days to treat acne is generally safe for most people, but you should be aware of potential side effects like gastrointestinal issues, photosensitivity, and yeast infections. Make sure to follow your dermatologists instructions carefully

I was prescribed Halox S solution to use before bed and then shampoo it out the next morning. However, it's just a 30ml bottle, so I'm wondering if I should be diluting the solution or using it differently to make it last longer?
No, continue same treatment as advised by the dermatologist.
