Pore blockages produce blackheads, whiteheads and other types of pimples. Pimples are pus-filled, sometimes painful, bumps on your skin. Acne is a skin condition that occurs when your hair follicles become plugged with oil and dead skin cells. It causes whiteheads, blackheads or pimples. Acne is most common among teenagers, though it affects people of all ages. Effective acne treatments are available, but acne can be persistent. The pimples and bumps heal slowly, and when one begins to go away, others seem to crop up. Depending on its severity, acne can cause emotional distress and scar the skin. © Clearsky Pharmacy ( www.clearskypharmacy.biz )

  7. Acne Vulgaris (Acne) - Types And Treatments Topical Acne Medications Your healthcare provider may recommend using a topical acne medication to treat your skin. You can rub these medications directly onto your skin as you would a lotion or a moisturizer. These could include products that contain one of the following ingredients: Tretinoin, Azelaic Acid, Salicylic acid, Dapsone. Topical prescription acne treatment is a generally safe and effective medication. However, some users experience side effects. The most common side effect is a warm, stinging sensation on the skin directly after the medication is applied. This is often accompanied by dry and itchy skin, redness, mild peeling /scaling, and sun sensitivity. © Clearsky Pharmacy ( www.clearskypharmacy.biz )

  15. Acne Vulgaris (Acne) - Types And Treatments Oral Acne Medications Oral acne medications are pills that you take by mouth to clear your acne. Types of oral acne medications could include: Antibiotics: Antibiotics treat acne caused by bacteria. Common antibiotics for acne include tetracycline, minocycline and doxycycline. These are best for moderate to severe acne. Isotretinoin: Isotretinoin is an oral retinoid. Isotretinoin shrinks the size of oil glands, which contributes to acne formation. Contraceptives: The use of certain contraceptives can sometimes help women and people AFAB who have acne. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved several types of birth control pills for treating acne. Some brand names include Yasmin® and Yaz®. These pills contain a combination of estrogen (the primary AFAB sex hormone) and progesterone (a natural form of steroid that helps regulate menstruation). © Clearsky Pharmacy ( www.clearskypharmacy.biz )

Common antibiotics for acne include tetracycline, minocycline and doxycycline. These are best for moderate to severe acne. The American Academy of Dermatology supports the use of oral antibiotics for treating moderate and severe acne, and oral antibiotics have been a mainstay of acne treatment for over 50 years. It is well- accepted that antibiotics are efficacious in reducing acne severity and have an overall acceptable safety profile. Some previously employed antibiotics (e.g., Erythromycin and Clindamycin) are no longer used clinically because of their high rates of resistance. Doxycycline, Minocycline, Azithromycin are among the several antibiotics currently used. © Clearsky Pharmacy ( www.clearskypharmacy.biz )

  21. Acne Vulgaris (Acne) - Types And Treatments Oral Acne Medications Isotretinoin: Isotretinoin is an oral retinoid. Isotretinoin shrinks the size of oil glands, which contributes to acne formation. Isotretinoin is used to treat severe, disfiguring nodular acne. It should be used only after other acne medicines or antibiotics have been tried and have failed to help the acne. Isotretinoin may also be used to treat other skin diseases as determined by your doctor. Isotretinoin must not be used to treat women who are able to bear children unless other forms of treatment have been tried first and have failed. Isotretinoin must not be taken during pregnancy because it causes birth defects in humans. If you are able to bear children, it is very important that you read, understand, and follow the pregnancy warnings for isotretinoin. © Clearsky Pharmacy ( www.clearskypharmacy.biz )
