"this medication is okay. it only works if i also use benzoyl peroxide. i have to use it religiously. i still get cystic acne occasionally. it makes my skin feel oily. it&#039;s okay. it takes many years to get rid of scarring from the acne. i have tried many drug combinations and in my experience they all work equally well or bad depending on how consistently you use the drug. retin a is no miracle."
