3% erythromycin powder and 1% precipitated sulfur in aquatain cream

My dermatologist prescribed me a 3% erythromycin powder and 1% precipitated sulfur in aquatain cream mixture, it is a cream. Has anymore ever been prescribed this mixture? What are the side effects? How long does it take to work?
Thanks

Help with deciding on a medication

My dermatoloist is calling me later on today so we can discuss a new medication. I've tried accutane, minocin, erythromycin( all of which i had to stop because of side effects ). So no oral treatments are possible. I've tried clinsasol, clindoxyl, differin, panoxyl. Does anybody have any suggestions as to any medicines i can discuss with her which i have not taken and are good ones? Preferably topical creams or topical anti biotics, possibly a retinoid.
thanks

severe chest and bacne before and after accutane show me some love

These are pictures of my chest and back acne before my first course of accutane which was completely cleared up after the course was done.
If you are able to maximize the pictures, you can see how bad it was.
Just showing how accutane has changed me.
the new picture is only red marks and scars
there is only one or two active pimples but nothing to complain about
it has been fading away for the past year so im happy with it
enjoy

I could use advice/help

I have been on accutane twice. The first time I went on it was January of 07 until may 07, taking 80 mg a day. The second time I went on it I had to stop in the middle of the course due to severe headaches, blurred vision, nosebleeds, and blood in my stool. Before the second course of accutane I first tried Minocyncline which i experienced severe headaches with and had to stop using. The second I tried was erythromycin which is another oral antibiotic which i started getting severe stomach pain with. Therefore, I tried accutane as a last resort once again. After discontinuing accutane about a week ago, i have to put on my skin. I have tried clindoxyl, clindasol, minocin, accutane, erythromycin, differin, differin XP, BP, none of which has helped me. My first question is this, why is my body rejecting all of the oral medications? (Don't be afraid to get technical) My second question is this, does anybody have any advice for what I can do for my skin/any other medications which are not taken orally and that do no contain benzoyl peroxide? Also I'd like to say good luck to any accutane users who may use this, and be happy if you are not experiencing serious side effects which require you to stop taking it!, and I really appreciate you taking the time to read all of this
Thanks!
