Are there any other acne treatments that are powerful other than Accutane?

Lady asked:


I have cystic acne, and my doctor told me that I should definitely try Accutane. The only issue is that my insurance doesn’t cover it and it would cost over $1000 a month. I’ve been using the Murad acne process and that’s been working well for me, but that doesn’t work for the cystic acne under the skin, only the blemishes on the top layer. Are there any other medications or products that have worked on cystic acne that you know of? Thank you times ten in advance.
I’m already using a topical treatment called Murad. It’s basically Proactive x10 so that really won’t help me. That doesn’t take care of acne under the skin, only on top.

ME asked:


I have Moderate, sometimes severe acne, Not so much on my face but on my shoulders and upper back I get Cystic acne really bad. It rarely form white heads, and they hurt alot, typical diet and washing twice a day just isnt cutting it, I need a pill or something i could take, that would not cost alot to get because i dont have Health Insurence. What are some medications I could specifically ask for that dont cost a whole lot?

Thank you :)

Does anyone know of any good acne products/perscriptions for cystic acne and scarring? I’m currently using Glytone, which helps clear up but I’m tired of wearing make-up to the gym which I shouldn’t even do but it’s better than wearing no make-up.
