Hello,
Althea is known to give good skin tone and take care of acne problems, but it can also have adverse effects. Hence it is not advisable to take this medicine without prescription.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
