What's good for acne?

[over-the-top]

I have some pretty bad break outs on my back. I've tried oxy stuff and salycilic acid body wash soap and I shower at least twice a day, but it isn't getting any better. I know accutane is supposed to work, but it's also really hard on the liver and has a lot of side effects. Is there anything in between that might help (either prescription or OTC)? Anyone have any thoughts? I can't get an appt. to see a dermatologist until August, and I'd hate to miss the whole summer.

thx.

The stuff sounds great and I will definitely give it a try. Thanks!
