A member asked:
Does the anti-biotic "erythrocin" work to reduce acne?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Antibiotics in acne: Erythrocin (erythromycin) can be used for the treatment of acne. It is typically used for treating a bacterial infection, but it also helps in reducing skin redness and inflammation. In most cases, erythrocin is used in combination with other topical products such as benzoyl peroxide to help reduce risk of developing resistance to antibiotics.
