Pros:

I've tried EVERYTHING to clear up my acne on my back, chest, and face and nothing has worked but this. And it works VERY well while you take it. I experienced no negative side effects that i know of.

Cons:

Only works while you take it. Doesn't permanantly get rid of your acne. When you stop taking it, you break out BAD. But I've been taking it for six months and haven't experienced anything bad so as long as I keep taking it I'm good!

It works very well. I highly recommend it!

Pros:

Cleared up my acne perfectly very quickly!

Cons:

I stopped taking it, and five months later I was very stressed and my acne came back, so I've been using it again for a couple days

I experienced no side affects, and I am on it again, so I have been very pleased with the results.

Pros:

Cleared my skin up!

Cons:

Huge Pill!!

I have HUGE cysts on my face from a severe bacteria infection and within a few weeks, I think I have been using it for two now...I DO NOT have new breakouts and my skin is actually healing. Take this advice from me because I have tried EVERYTHING..proactiv, clinique, origins, murad, neutrogena, and everything in between...this stuff works great! Ask your dematologist for some! A+ product.

Bactrim DS 160mg/800mg Tablets 60 (6 x 10) (Authority Script) 46 cents per tablet This is the only thing that really works. I get deep cyst type pimples on my cheeks, but within a week of starting this, they disappeared. I have been on it for over a year now. I know it is still working because if I forget to take it for a few days, I will ALWAYS break out! The best thing is I can now be so carefree with my skin and I still wont get cysts. For example: I don't use any acne creams, I wash my face with soap, I can sleep in my makeup, and I can forget to wash my face. My life has changed :-) A dermatologist got me onto this. And now my normal GP dispenses this to me as my dermatologist was nice enough to send a letter to my GP saying please dispense this, so I don't have to pay to go to the Dermatologists and pay his fees every time I need my script refilled. This is perfectly safe to take for the rest of your life. I know I will probably have to take it for th

Pros:

So far so good. Not drastic results but it's only day 2 and I've noticed my acne is drying up and swelling down.

Cons:

Nothing

I'm not sure what I have. I have moderate skin; however, Dr. tested my skin and my cultures came up positive for an infection. It looks just like acne and it's all under my chin/neck area. It even started spreading on my face! As soon as I started taking Bactrim, it's slowly healing. I really hope this works. And I hope I'm not allergic to this!

Pros:

Cleared my acne up greatly and quickly!!! Even after i stopped using it, my acne came back only in small pimples, which was very controlable.

Cons:

Very mild skin sensitivity to sunlight.

If you have bad or even moderate acne, and afraid of harsh side effects of other antibotics such as Accutain, then this stuff is for you!!!!
