Antibiotics - The most common antibiotic used for treating acne is tetracycline. It is used to kill the bacteria responsible for acne and also reduces inflammation. Antibiotic treatment may take several weeks or even months to be effective and must continue even after the acne has cleared up. A common side effect associated with oral acne treatments is increased sensitivity to sun light resulting in bad sunburns if the patient stays in the sun too long. Birth control pills are sometimes effective in treating acne in women. They change hormone levels in the body and can reduce the acne causing effects of testosterone. Zinc is a relatively new treatment that is effective in some cases.

Right now my skin is perfectly clear, for the first time in 3 years. It's been about 9 weeks and all my acne is gone. It is such a great feeling to wake up with clear skin.

As far as I knows, the oral medications belongs to the Systemic therapy. So far, there are some kinds of oral medications which are prescribed by the skin doctors, including:
1.oral antibiotics
2.oral retinoic acid (after taking, someone will have serious aftereffect. Therefore, please follow doctor's indication)
3. the hormonal pill ( the same as the former)
