Summertime Sun Exposure Can 'Burn' Acne Sufferers in More Way...( New convenience kit can help patients...),Health

New convenience kit can help patients get the most out of treatment during the summer months and beyond

DOYLESTOWN, Pa., June 30 /PRNewswire/ -- For most people, the arrival of summer means more time outdoors, with trips to the beach, pool parties and other outdoor activities. What can be more enjoyable than soaking up the sun and having fun with friends?

With one prescription, the Avidoxy(TM) DK defence kit provides patients with the convenience of three products to help attack acne from the inside out. The kit includes Avidoxy (Doxycycline Tablets), which provides the active prescription ingredient trusted as adjunctive therapy for severe acne to eradicate bacteria and reduce inflammation, along with two additional non-prescription products free-of-charge:
