Basically I've been using Duac for 5 weeks, and it doesn't seem to be doing anything for my skin. A lot of people say it worked for them within 2 weeks! How long should I give it time to see if it works before I go back to the doctors and try a new treatment? Desperately wanting to get rid of my spots Posted Image please help!

5 weeks is nothing in skin clearing time! give it at least two months if not three. When I used it it was like magic, but what I had was duac during the day and then a retin-a or tretinoin cream at night , you may want to ask for your doc to add that it was a magic potion for me.

oh and p.s. if u have to pay for doc visits then just call in and ask for them to add the tretinoin or tell them your concerns, at least in the u.s. they may just call something in for you... worse they say is no...
