The truth is that the best oral antibiotic for acne is the one that works for you. What works for one person will not work for another. Often, the treatment of acne is a trial and error process. A dermatologist can often prescribe the "right" antibiotic quite rapidly based on experience.
Yes, you can build up a resistance to an antibiotic if you have taken it for a long time. When that happens, the antibiotic no longer acheives the desired results and a switch to a different one will be required.
If you are seeking a good treatment for your acne, I suggest you see a dermatologist.

I'm a teenage girl and I've been experimenting with this for years and I've found the perfect cure:
Gently wash your face 2ice a day everyday with warm soapy water. If it's really hot down there and causing you to sweat, up the washing to 3 times a day. Be gentle with the washcloth and don't pick at the zits in the day, otherwise you'll get scabs.
If you've got a severe big honkin' ZIT somewhere and it's embarrassing you to no end, then right before you go to bed get some baking soda, add a little water to make a paste then gently (after washing) cover the zit with the paste and leave it over night. The baking soda will dry over night (you wet it so it'll stick) then it'll suck up the gunk in the zit. It won't go away, but it'll make it a lot smaller.
Good luck!!
