antibiotics?

Question

Ive been on anitbiotics for soo long now and have gone through i dont even know how many kinds and nothing seems to be working! The latest ones the dermatoligist gave me is tazorac at night, duac in the morning, brevoxyl wash for morning and night and im on minocyline pills. Doesnt this seem like a bit much to stilll have acne? My acne isnt even that bad but I just have a lot of little pimples and my face is always realllly red. Anyone else been on antibiotics or know anything about them and whyy it is not working for me? Oh and also does anyone know how to get rid of the overall redness in my face?

Answer 1

ok--- I have given this answer so many times... and everyone.. has great result... I was on tetracyclin for a while but no longer use it or need it... go to the pharm.. buy OTC "PURPOSE" bar of soap-- only the bar.. not the luqid or gel.... wash your face with it 3'xs per day... pick up a low strength benzoperoide cream... dab this on the individual blemishes.. dont rub it in... works with oxidation/reduction reaction.. dont over use it.. or put it anywhere else on the face will dry out skin and make you look worse... if you need moisture... ask for "nutraderm" the original only not the new stuff.. won't leave residue on your skin... DONT SCRUB~ DONT use proactive.. DONT use any type of acids such as found in citrus fruits... DONT USE apricot scrub.... this was recommended by my dermatologist.. and HAS WORKED FOR ME AND OTHERS!!!! good luck...
