Hi! I have been on epiduo for about 2 weeks now. The first week my skin started to clear up a bit. By the end of week one my skin became very dry so i have been using cetaphil moisturzing lotion which helps. Now it is about 2 weeks and i am FREEKING OUT. My skin has started to disgustingly breakout on my cheeks and forehead. I just want to know if this is the initial breakout and how long it will last. I am about to cry because i have had mild acne for about 4 years but now at week 2 it just got terrible. I want to continue using it because everyone says it works but i just want to know how long this possible initial breakout will last. PLEASE HELP!!

Hang in there, a breakout is pretty normal. I would say if you had mild acne to begin with, then this new breakout should clear up in a couple of weeks. Its just all the bumps under your skin coming up to the surface. Good luck! :)
