Retinoids are a type of topical medication derived from vitamin A. Retinoids prevent the plugging of hair follicles to reduce the occurrence of acne. Use products containing retinoids in the evenings. Start with applying it three times each week, and work your way up to daily use as your skin becomes accustomed to the medication. Dapsone (Aczone) is an antibiotic combined with anti-inflammatory medication. This gel helps treat acne by killing bacteria and keeping the pores in your skin clean and unclogged. It is often combined with a topical retinoid to maximize the effectiveness of both medications. Possible side effects include dry skin and redness/irritation. For more severe acne cases, antibiotics may be necessary to help treat current outbreaks and prevent future ones. Antibiotics are often used with benzoyl peroxide to reduce the chances of developing antibiotic-resistant bacteria on your skin, and may be combined with retinoids for maximum effectiveness. Common antibiotics  combinations prescribed to treat acne include clindamycin with benzoyl peroxide (Benzaclin, Duac) and erythromycin with benzoyl peroxide (Benzamycin). Oral antibiotics may be prescribed for more moderate to severe acne to reduce the prevalence of bacteria in the body that may lead to acne. Antibiotics can also help reduce inflammation caused by acne. The most common oral antibiotics prescribed to treat acne are tetracyclines, including minocycline and doxycycline. Some women and adolescent girls with frequent acne outbreaks find that a combined oral contraceptive helps treat acne. These medications combine estrogen and progestin to deliver both contraceptive medicine and acne protection.  Three combined oral contraceptives are currently available in the United States: Ortho Tri-Cyclen, Estrostep, and Yaz.  Common side effects include headaches, tender breasts, nausea, weight gain, and periodic breakthrough bleeding, though some people experience more serious side effects like an increased risk of blood clots. Talk to your doctor to determine if a combined oral contraceptive might be right for you. Anti-androgen agents like spironolactone (Aldactone) may be prescribed to women and adolescent girls who have not had success with oral antibiotics. This class of medications works by preventing androgen hormones from affecting the sebaceous glands in the skin. Common side effects include breast tenderness, painful periods, and the possible retention of potassium within the body.
