I'm thinking about stopping Melacare and I'm a bit worried about any side effects. What steps should I follow to do it safely? And once I stop using it, is it okay to apply aloe vera gel with vitamin E on my skin at night? Would love to get your advice on this.

I'm really struggling with acne and pigmentation issues that I've had for the past two months. My doctor put me on zithrox 250 three times a week for three months, and I'm using acnicin sunscreen and acne uv gel with SPF 30, plus a hyperpigmentation cream with tyrodin, kojic acid, arbutin, vitamin C, and vitamin E. The acne's cleared up, but I still have some marks and scars left, especially on my cheeks. Any advice on what I can do next?
