If you have used Accretropin (somatropin rDNA Original) and experienced an increase or decrease in acne, please tell us about it here. Be sure to include as much information as possible, including when you started taking Accretropin, the dosage, other side effects you experienced, and anything else that might be relevant. Acne is sometimes a side effect of prescription drug usage, but other times it has to do with hard-to-track-down lifestyle changes, bacteria in your gut, or nutrient deficiency. In our experience, the best way to treat acne is by eliminating sugar, flour, dairy, caffeine, and vegetable oils from your diet. Supplementing zinc, vitamin b complex, boron, melatonin, and SOD is likely to help as well.

I’ve tried Proactive before, it wokerd for a while but, like all other drugs-my system built a tolerance to it. I am 26 F, i’ve tried EVERYTHING. This works for me:Morning: Only rinse face, add slight moisturizer (100% Aloe Vera Lotion, found at a natural health food store..maybe even GNC)Evening: Wash face with Ivory soap. It’s cheap, 100% soap, so no extra stuff in it for breakouts or to clog pores. Use a mild astringent with a cotton ball, like Clean Clear, to remove excess dirt. If your skin is dry, use the moisturizer again. For treating the acne topically, go to your local Wal Mart- Walgreen’s-or Natural Health store, get a bottle of Tea Tree Oil. Costs about $ 10? Use a q-tip to apply topically to the pimple, or for worse break-outs, spread over the entire area. Careful not to use super often, it will dry out your skin.!! Works almost immediately!A few times a week: Use a gentle facial scrub to exfoliate dead skin. Use very carefully though, it will aggravate breakouts if you scrub too hard. Depending on how old you are, hormones, stress, have a lot to do with it too. So, be sure to eat right, rest, take care of yourself! Good luck!
