For a year, it was wonderful. Cleared up my adult acne, and I was confident and attractive again. Then, apparently I started to build up resistant. So, now I've gone back to BP; however, don't have the results I had when I first went on erythromycin. Still doing both: Eryth at night, BP during day, but BP over the swollen ones at night. Using the Eryth 2% topical gel. I use it on my back, since it doesnt stain clothes: which is my biggest complaint against BP. Obviously, since I'm on this site, I'm looking for the next "wonderful" treatment. :(

Have been on 5 different prescribed acne medications for over 6 years now. The Benzemycin gel was the first one my dermatologist prescribed for me, and it's still the one I use the most. It hasn't gotten rid of my acne 100% (but then, nothing has yet), but it's given me the best results.
The only thing I don't like about it is it's EXTREMELY drying. I can't even use it more than 3 or 4 days straight before I have to give my skin a break, or my face starts to peel as if it were sunburned. But other than that, it's pretty effective.

I've had a friend telling me to try this for over two years now. I finally succomed after despairing results with Sulfact-R and Minocin.
I'm not using the topical with a sponge top applicator and the results are there to be witnessed overnight.
It is so inexpensive compared to the the pharaceuticals I've tried. I feel so grateful to my friend and his suggestion.

i have been using erythromycin gel (2 %) for a little while now and all it has done is dried my skin to the point where I don't leave my house in the morning... i may have an alergic reaction to this drug, but my family physician doesn't think that's likely. Using this product in moderation and when applying, I applied sparingly, did not dry my skin out as much, albeit it probably isn't doing as much to clear my acne. it has cleared it up a little, but I am using multiple medications, to be honest, the $30 cost can buy you 3 or 4 months of clearasil, which works for most. I use both and my skin is improving... slowly.

Been using erythromycin for 3 months, not much improvement. Also really bad side effects; diarrhea, indigestion, Dry Itchy Skin! arghhhh! Now decided to stop taking it! Trying tetracyclines.

I've been on it for exactly two months now and it hasn't done a thing. It also has made my skin incredibly dry and itchy.

I've been using erythromycin (sponge on solution) for about a year now, and my acne is definitely less noticeable. I'm using it only at night so it doesnt irritate my skin. I've heard of a bunch of people saying it dries out your skin, but it only does that for the first couple of weeks. I used a moisturizing face wash before using the solution and it kept my face from getting too dried out.

I was prescribed 500mg 2x day for 2months. Took it for a month until my ears started to ring (tinnitus). I noticed some improvement but not anything remarkable since I only had taken it for 30days.
