Acne, whether it is just a few stains or a severe condition, can be treated provided that the patient, the pharmacist and the doctor understand the instructions that follow. All that is required for the successful treatment of acne is to follow the advice of experienced people with the proper use of drugs (whether formulated on the skin or taken orally).

General advice
It is important to accept the fact that acne can last with you for a long time, even using effective medications, though it can usually control the spots. People with acne should know that 80% of them will show a degree of improvement of up to 80% within six months, but it may be necessary to continue to treat spots for up to several years. In cases requiring oral medications, often antibiotics, they will need to repeat doses (at least for six months) in the form of tablets or capsules.

Topical skin treatment
In fact, all skin patches in "adolescents" will respond to topical treatment. And severe cases of acne will respond well to this treatment, but if you do not respond, treatment with antibiotics is necessary.

Types of topical medication: There are many types of these drugs, whether prescribed or sold in pharmacies. Sulfur and resorcinol compounds are suspected to be beneficial for non-severe acne cases. The most effective topical medication, which can be purchased without prescription, is benzoyl peroxide. These are compounds that can be prescribed by a doctor, who may also prescribe other topical medications containing vitamin A or antibiotics. There are currently types of Retinoids Retin A Retin A. The type of treatment depends on the doctor's experience and the type of spots.

Drugs that affect the bacteria would ease red spots festering. Salivar and resorcinol compounds may have a minor effect on the main acne-causing microorganism (P. acnes). Vehicles such as benzoyl peroxide and other topical antibiotics have a better effect on skin bacteria. Topical retinoids do not affect bacteria, but reduce the formation of black and white heads.
It should be confirmed here that topical medication should not only be applied to the spots but to the whole affected area. Even with improvement, you should continue to place the medication on the affected area so that the spots can be controlled.

Side effects of topical treatment: The use of many creams and ointments may cause some redness and scaling. This is called initial irritant dermatitis, which can be easily controlled by reducing the frequency of use of the treatment to one time instead of twice a day, or even less From it with put on specific parts of the face. This problem is usually eliminated constantly treatment.

Oral therapy (oral therapy):
There are basically three groups of medicines that are taken orally are:
Antibiotics
Hormones
Retionoids. It is only administered with a prescription, and with the exception of retinoids, oral therapy should be accompanied by topical therapy.

Oral antibiotics (taken orally):
The mainstay of oral therapy is antibiotics. The most commonly prescribed antidepressants are tetracycline or oxytetracycline. These antibiotics should be administered on a two-tablet basis daily for six months. It is important to take these tablets as recommended by the doctor, to achieve the maximum benefit of treatment. Alternative antibiotics include: erythromycine, minocycline,
Doxycycline, trimethoprim and trimethoprim. Often cases require repetition and use for longer periods of treatment. Antibiotics work in two ways: they reduce the number of bacteria and reduce inflammatory reactions.

Side Effects of Antibiotic Treatment Antibiotic therapy, even for a long time, is very safe. However, in rare cases, there may be cases of medical rash, causing widespread rash and itching, which should stop treatment. It is unusual to experience a slight impairment of health or abdominal pain (colic) sometimes accompanied by simple diarrhea, which usually stops automatically after a few days or may
You need a drug treatment for several days. Another disadvantage of antibiotics is the acquisition of bacteria resistant to them, resulting in non-response to treatment and survival of acne as it appears to improve.

Hormone abuse systems:
Either the regular pill has little or no effect on acne, and yet your doctor or dermatologist may prescribe estrogen-containing pills that also contain an androgen called cyproterone acetate. Hormonal systems work mainly to suppress the increase in fat production. They are usually given for 8 months, and as with antibiotics should be accompanied by topical creams.

Side Effects of Hormonal Systems The side effects of oral contraceptives containing anti-androgen are no different from regular birth control pills.

Retinoids
Which are oral drugs such as isotretinoin (Roaccutane). Although it is very effective for the treatment of acne . The prescription is limited to a dermatologist. It should be used with extreme caution and with strict adherence to the instructions of a dermatologist. These drugs are not a group of hormones or antibiotics, but are a derivative of vitamin A.

It significantly reduces the fat produced by the sebaceous glands of the skin. Reduce the formation of black and white heads and reduce the number of bacteria, although it is not an antibiotic. It also - and complex mechanisms - reduce the incidence of inflammation. Thus, they affect the four related factors because of acne, so it is not surprising that these drugs are considered very useful in the treatment of acne. The treatment usually takes up to 4 months, after which acne will disappear completely.
Side Effects of Isotretinoin: The most serious side effect of this drug is its effect on the fetus (meaning it causes defects in the fetus's body if taken during pregnancy). Therefore, pregnancy should not be allowed during treatment with this medicine and for one month after discontinuation. For this reason, women who are pregnant are required to use contraceptives (usually pills) during the treatment period with isotretinoin. Treatment with this medicine is only under the supervision of a dermatologist and any amount returned should be returned to the doctor or pharmacist. Where it is dangerous to give this medicine to a friend or relative suffering from acne.

Most patients develop a good degree of dry lips and skin (especially facial skin), and some may experience dry eyelids. About 30% can suffer from joint or muscle pain and 5% headaches. However, all of these side effects can be controlled with simple medications such as moisturizers and mild analgesics such as paracetamol. and so it is very rare to abruptly stop the treatment.

Steroids
These are usually not used to treat acne cases, except one which is direct injection of one of these compounds such as tri-aminacillone triamcinolone within nodules-like spots, where it reduces redness. And practical

Why not trying to clean up the diet and ensure proper detoxification. Skin is a direct expression of what is going on in the gut microbiome.

Suppressing acne is not a sustainable idea healthwise.

I share your opinion, my friend. But there are people who do not know this

Then why are you promoting the opposite of what you believe?

Let's not blame some people, there are genetic diseases

Genetic expression is regulated by the environmental exposure.

Blaming non-genetic conditions on genetics is just a way to not take responsibility for your own health.
