| Pros | Started using Clindamycin gel-made my skin WORSE!! Then after I researched other medications I requested Erythromycin tablets 2X day 500 mg, and instantly my skin changed for the better... |
|---|---|
| Cons | No cons...No side affects, nothing... |
| Bottom line | Within the past year I have def done my fair share of research. I would highly recommend starting with an oral antibiotic. The creams and gels do no justice. I've read that acne is caused by a bacteria festering inside our bodies. Placing a topical solution on the "outler" layer will not cure the bacteria. Most importantly : Research your options and demand a change in prescriptions if you don't vision any improvements. Only you know your body... Good luck to all :-) There is hope... |

| Pros | I have used it for a month and I have seen an improvement in the amount of new pimples but the improvement has only been about 15% so far and im guessing its full effects have not come in yet. |
|---|---|
| Cons | the first few days I had an upset stomach and diarrhea. |
| Bottom line | not to much improvement in a month but since its only been a month i cant say if its really good or not. Oh yeah my body acne has gone down by about 25% but I also started a neutragena body scrub the same time i started this. My parents dont have a prescription plan or whatever its called so its pretty expensive if you dont have that |

| Pros | worked at first.. |
|---|---|
| Cons | been on it for two months and my chest is now coverd in pimple.... i'm so dissapointed because in the first 4 weeks my skin became perfect and my confidence soared. now i am jst miserable again looking for another way to help my acne. |
| Bottom line | it's a quick fix, not a long term treatment. Oh and i had thrush in the first two weeks. |

| Pros | cleared up acne within 2 months, skin was completely clear. |
|---|---|
| Cons | stopped working after 6 months acne is starting to return did not have any sickness or tummy upset |
| Bottom line | It took 3 weeks to kick in my skin was completely clear with not 1 spot for about 5 months. Then docs took the amount down and it started to come back so i put it back up but i think im immune to it now, as acne is returning. Was not expensive either. Going back to docs this week to find an alternative. |

| Pros | have used it for 5 days and so far soo good. It has dried my acne and seems to clear my black sports ( which are quite deep). I use it together with doxycline tablets which is an antibacteria. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Leaves the face very dry especially in the morning which is quite embarrassing while working at my front desk job. Quite expensive without no insurance. Slightly affected my neck: rush like appearance and itching. |
| Bottom line | My doctor told me to skip a day or two which I just did a day ago. It works perfectly fine now. Make sure you don't touch the eye area with it coz it makes the eyes swell. I'm taking before and after pictures and so far sooooo good. Can anybody recommend a good facial moisturizer for normal to oily skin type? |

| Pros | Cleared up back and chest acne amazingly and quickly (it only took about 1 month), I had previously tried using Neutrogena Acne Body Wash but it didn't do squat. So I was really thankful when my doctor prescribed topical Erythromycin for my body. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Doesn't seem to be working as well for my face; it's still red and bumpy. I still break out. Don't seem to get any more whiteheads but doesn't work on blackheads. |
| Bottom line | Try it if you have facial or body acne, its worth a try. Use the topical kind, it hasn't given me any bad side effects at all. I don't know why it worked on my back but not my face. |
