View allI'm taking a 5mg levocet tablet for a skin reaction on my face and have been on it for 6 days now. Since I don't have any more itching or redness, I'm wondering if I should stop the medicine or keep going. My doctor originally suggested I take it for 10 days. What do you think I should do?
You can stop taking Levocet 5mg tablet since you no longer have itching or redness on your face. It is advisable to complete the course as prescribed by your doctor, which in your case is 10 days. Since you have already taken it for 6 days and your symptoms have resolved, you can safely discontinue the medication.

I'm 25 and have been using benzoyl peroxide for my acne for the past three months, both the cream and the face wash. Lately, I've started noticing some fine lines or wrinkles near my cheeks. Could the benzoyl peroxide be causing this, or is there something else I should be concerned about? I'm just a bit worried since I'm still quite young for wrinkles. What should I do?
