Hi everyone,

Long time reader, first time poster here. I have been suffering from moderate to severe acne for the last 3 years and I have been using Epiduo/TactuPump. I am also currently on an antibiotic. 

I apply the cream every night before bed, and without fail I wake up with my T-Zone covered in sebum. I am wondering if the Epiduo is causing this?

I also get oily skin 4 hours later into the day. What should I do? :/

Yes! Im finding it does thatto me too. I have just hit the 2 week mark today and it is easing up so im guessing it will eventually sort itself out. Im hoping the same for you too. How long have you been on it?

What I have been doing is just gently blotting my face with tissues while I wait it out.
