Yup. It's quite mild, but for the 6 weeks that i was on it, it worked pretty well. My skin isn't as bad as it was, so i don't tend to use the antibiotics anymore, i just read up on www.acne.org and tried a few things on there.
I couldn't grow a beard if i tried and I'm 19...

Go and see your GP, different treatments work for different people.
I tried every kind of cream and tablets they could offer and none of them worked. My GP finally referred me to the dermatologist who put me on Roaccutane, which worked an absolute treat with zero side affects.

I find that after shaving, my acne flares up even worse. I'm using a relatively 'ok' razor with clean heads etc but I can't do anything for it.
Is it because it's possibly taking off a very slight bit of skin as it goes, dead skin perhaps? This is the only idea I can think of. I'm not pushing too hard either, letting the razer fall under it's own weight and then just applying a tiny bit of pressure...
This worked for me (seriously, I used it for a couple of months every day) but YMMV http://www.acnease.co.uk/

Stop eating Sausages, Hot Dogs, cold meats (as in Salami).
For some reason, they give me 500% more spots.

You were lucky then lol, I was on those when I was in school, I'm now 26, and ever since I was on them, I've suffered with chapped lips, even now.
Awesome tablets like you said, Very powerful though, No alcohol or drug use while on them. ATALL.
Very few people have zero side affects with this!
I didn't start getting spots until a few years ago. This is what I use and it works superbly. Only ever get one in a blue moon and even then they are normally small and disappear quickly.

Acne is hormonal.... you will eventually grow out of it... I dont think there is a real cure!! I may be wrong though!
