To be a little bit flippant I have experienced back acne for a long time. The best thing to clear it up for me was the sun, but that was back in the day when it wasn’t totally insane to get a sun tan. I wouldn’t advise that to anyone now.
If you find it to mak3 you extremely self conscious on a semi regular basis you have to determine what is best for you. It is not a joke in terms of potential impact and side effects but you could try it and stop using it if the side effects were too much.
How old are you by the way? Depending on your current age you are likely to outgrow the worst of it. I think if you are cognizant of the side effects and take a cautious approach and a doctor who is knowledgeable and supportive.
Taking blood tests for a fairly commonly prescribed medicine is not common. If you were suffering really bad facial acne I definitely would lean towards taking it. I was fortunate I never really had that problem and just had relatively mild chest and back acne.
