Hi , i have a acne around my jawline , some on my cheeks and a couple on my head. I went to the derm recently and he gave me erythromcyin 250mg for my acne, 1 in the morning and 1 at night and also a couple of serums and 1 cleanser. After a week of taking the pill , i broke out on my left cheek., have like 4-6 of them. I was so paranoid . I really dont know what is happening , is it purging? should i still continue or discard ? anyone facing the same problem as me ? please i need your experience in this . ill try to keep update you on this forum . I hope anyone could reply me thank you so much.
For some people it gets worse (for about a couple of weeks) before they clear up. For others (like me) it clears you up in 4 days. However, antibiotics are not a long term solution. Once you stop using them, there is a huge possibility you will breakout worse than before. I would recommend staying away from them. They also damage your gut and stomach lining.
