Okay so first a little background:
Jul 2011-October 2011- Epiduo
October 2011-~January 2012 Morning: Retin-A 0.04%, Night- Duac
January 2012-April 2012 Morning: Retin A 0.1%, Night- Acanya, Doryx Delayed Release pills (150 mg)

My skin started to clear up a lot this past week, however, I had already booked a new appointment at a new dermatologist due to the fact that it took so long for my skin to start to look better.

The new doctor made this my regimen:
Morning: Clean with Prascion Cleanser
               Use Clindamycin Phosphate 1% Pledgets

Night: Clean with Prascion Cleanser
          Use Acanya

He told me to stop Doryx immediately (as its been about 3 months) , and not to wean off it.

Does anyone have experience with any of these new cleansers/pledgets. I've already been using Acanya and it's been working great.
But what about the rest?

Also- Is getting of Doryx so abruptly okay, and when should I expect a post-doryx break out? (It's been 3 days since I've been off it and I have ~3 new pimples but nothing severe)
