If you’re looking for accurate acne information, best to see a dermatologist. Some people believe doctors are predisposed to take the easy way to deal with acne… prescription drugs. But, with many, this simplistic answer may not be the appropriate course of action. Some feel that such prescription drugs just treat the symposium and not the underlying cause. But, a local dermatologist is still your best starting point.
For me personally, I discovered a great informational acne treatment site. Not only is there good information/articles but I got their audio e-book and following it’s advice can now say that my acne is a thing of the past! Keep in mind, were all different and there are various types of acne, so what works for some may not be totally effective for all.
Bottom line, hang in there, you will get past this! Sincere best wishes and good luck.
Oh, by the way the site that helped me is:

I spoke to a dermatolagist and she said that Proactive is no stronger thanClean and clear which works for very mild acne. Like one or two pimples in a year. Go see a dermatologist. They're cool and are there to help! My dermatologist recomended Benzolyl Peroxide Cleanser and Azelex acne cream. And trust it works better than Proactive.

My doctor had me combine an Rx called Clindamicyn (might be off on spelling) along with Oxy face wash.
I tried other things and it didn't work, but they were all over the counter. So go see your doctor. Any doctor can write the prescription for Clindamycin gel. It's a topical antibiotic. It costs about $40 if you don't have insurance.
Once you do this, if you decide to try it, make sure to use sunscreen daily.

Ive used expensive stuff like proactiv and cheap stuff like clean and clear and honestly the cheap stuff always works better! And I found that if I rotate - that is never buy the same kind twice in a row- my skin always looks better. It's like it gets too used to whatever I'm using at the time. But clean and clear makes a variety of different cleansers, and I like them all. Currently I'm using the new oxygenating scrub and my skin looks great and it smells really really good too!

Salycilic Acid is relatively gentle, and you can use it everyday on acne, it helps the cells to repair. It's cheap too. Don't get anything with more than 1% though.
