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'm using Kera XL hair growth serum on the spots where my hairline is receding. I'm really curious if this stuff actually works. Can you tell me if hair serums like this are effective for balding areas, or am I wasting my time?

Kera XL hair growth serum contains minoxidil which is known to promote hair growth. It is commonly used to treat male pattern baldness. For best results, apply 1ml of Kera XL hair growth serum twice daily directly onto the scalp in the hair loss area. Consistent use over a period of several months may be needed to see visible results.

I'm dealing with this issue where I've got these white pus-filled bumps on my face, and they usually come in clusters. They're not just regular pimples but are more like pus-filled lesions, and some can be pretty painful. I did a bit of research, and it seems like it might be caused by staph bacteria. I had this same problem last year and was prescribed Minoz OD and Microdox, which cleared it up back then. Really need some advice now on how I can tackle this again. Any suggestions on what I should do?
