WORKED SO WELL!!

Prior to taking erythromycin i has tried multiple antibiotics as well as creams and gels from my GP. I was prescribed erythromycin as a last resort before hospital referral on a very short course (around 6 weeks). The first week or so i didn't notice a change, however by two weeks in my skin had changed dramatically. i struggled with clusters of acne however these were all gone by around 8 weeks. Now, 3 months later my skin feels amazing (i only get occasional spots). Erythromycin saved my skin!

Pros:

it is the most effective and fast treatment I ever got.Even My Cousin's face started to clear off.highly recommended for cystic acne

Cons:

might cause redness if alot added. should be used daily with the right face cleanser until your face cleared up ,it wont be effective without it ( mine, Gentle cleanser by GLY Derm), but you'll reduce it day by day , until you stop

I have cystic acne and oily skin since the age of 18.For 4 years Iam looking for a miracle treatment .I went to 3 doctors (the best doctors in city).they insisted me to use recotine( which i highly dont recommend). I've went through proactive, natural treatments and every known treatment you would imagine.None were effective.my face became filled with scars.I looked horrible and untreatable until I made up my mind to take recotine pills I was about to buy them from the store ( after getting the doctors prescription) I said to myself "what if it didnt worked for me? think of the side effects.ok, it might clear them first but whats the garantee that it wont come back?am I going to take that risk?" so I took the erthromycin ( stiemycin solution) and face cleancer ( gentle cleanser by GLY derm) as they were discribed with recotine.for approximatly two weeks of daily usage my face 100% cleared up.A miracle .imagine cystic acne cleared up by a treatment that costs less than $25(2 items).

Pros:

Having had 2 courses of Roaccutane which helped but didn't solve my problem, I was skeptical about an antiobiotic. But i was wrong! Oraly erythromycin is AMAZING. I saw significant improvement after a few weeks and now I have perfect skin, literally.

Cons:

No side effects for me. My only fear is that eventually I'll develop resistance to it.

As your GP to prescribe it. Don't think that just because other antibiotics haven't worked for you that erythromycin won't. I tried 'Lymecycline' for several months with little improvement but erythromycin worked phenomenally. This stuff is amazing. And the oral form is also more effective than topical erythromycin (Zineryt didn't work very well for me). I would almost describe it as a miracle cure for my skin. Give it a decent try (you need to use it for a good 2 months to tell whether it's going to work). Highly, highly recommended.
