I have been taking Neurontin for 4 years for absence seizures, has completly prevented seizures! But! I also broke out in adult acne(I'm 42!!!) and finally have cleared it up(Not with a prescribed medication) with "NEUTROGENA OIL-FREE ACNE WASH!!!! My skin is dried out a bit, but clear. And it only took about 2-3 weeks to clear up my face , which was a relief after three years with this deep acne, caused by the Neurontin. Hint! I also use ST.Ive's apricot facial scrub every other day, it helps remove the dead skin and unclog pores. Use very warm water. Even shampoo breaks me out, so be careful not to use conditioners and shampoo lots, with a clarifiying shampoo, or something for limp hair, as they tend to remove any oily deposits. Sorry about the length of this thing! Hope it helps.Deborah
ps. anti histines help if you run out of the cleanser for a day or so! D.
