If you have used Extavia (Interferon beta-l b) 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 Extavia, 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.
Acneresearch.org offers resources for acne sufferers, including success stories, links to and summaries of dozens of clinical acne studies, and a lifestyle routine designed to help you treat acne naturally.

You do not need to live with acne — it is a disease caused by a combination of a western lifestyle and western diet. By treating your acne, you’ll likely find yourself healthier, happier, and more attractive — physically and emotionally.
I was taking Beta Seron, for 15 years and doing well on it but then changed insurance,
now my insurance only prescribes Extavia and I have been on .25ml for less than two weeks after a five month break and I have more acne now than in high school and my entire life. My whole face is breaking out and painful big red sores everywhere. Can You Help me?
