Is it a good idea to be dying your acnes with chloramphenicol?

Get real care: An antibiotic should never be sole treatment for acne. If topical benzoyl peroxide has not cleared you in two weeks, your physician is the best person to see. Perhaps topical Clindamycin would be a better choice for a second Rx.
