Has Tetracycline or Clindamycin helped treat your acne?

I just went to the dermatologist for the first time last week and he prescribed me Tetracycline and Clindamycin. I'm praying that they'll work! Has anyone had any success or failures with these medications?Has Tetracycline or Clindamycin helped treat your acne?
I am a nurse and have seen good results with these medications. Remember antibiotics decrease the effectiveness of birth control.Has Tetracycline or Clindamycin helped treat your acne?
yea tetrecycline works pretty good i have it.. but if you have sensitive skin it could burn, it hurts like hell the first time. but stick with it also if its not burning or not having affect see if you have the stronger kind there are two types and one is more powerful then the other.. good luck
Clindamycin... is that the medicine in the white tube with a sponge applicator? It works awsome!! Good luck!
I gave up on antibiotics for my acne, which I found out was really foliculitis barbae. I use Retin A 10% and it keeps these erruptions down and gone, but they do occasionally come back, mostly during hot summer months when one sweats a lot. You could have a chemical imbalance whereas your pores secrete too much oil.





However, Retin ';A'; is very dangerous as it eats the top layer of skin off and if you go in the sun, it can cause cancer as your top protective area of skin is now gone.
