I'm dealing with acne on my face and my doctor had prescribed some Adaplec cream along with an antibiotic pill, but I can't remember the name of the pill and unfortunately, the doctor isn't available right now. Could someone help me figure out which antibiotic pill might have been prescribed for treating acne?

I'm using Minscalp Plus every night, about 1ml. I used to use Minscalp 5 before that, but now Im noticing more hair fall than before and some root pain at the top. Should I stick with it, and are there any age-related side effects with these meds? Also, I'm using ZycafyM for shampooing. What do you recommend I do?

don't use too much products
