"i started having cystic acne at age11. i had it on my face but not as bad as the big sore ozzing cysts on my back and chest and even on my breasts. it was a terrible time for me that followed me into adult hood. i had tried every antibiotic known to man. every cream, soap and vitamin out there. finally in 1981 a dermatologist recommended accurate. this was the brand name one. generics weren&#039;t so popular then. it worked wonders! i couldn&#039;t believe that i could be acne free. i still had and still do have bad scarring but no pimples or cyst s. i took it for 6 months. i was great for about 11yrs. i then developed hidradenitis on my inner thighs and stomach and breasts. i then was prescribed generic accurate. it didn&#039;t help that condition at all"
