Avatar m tn Diane 35 is a medication used widely for treatment and control of acne. Though it does provide some birth control, it is prescribed only for acne. The instructions with the pills say clearly that those on this pill should be on other non-hormonal forms of birth control eg condoms and to not use any other birth control pill while on diane 35. more information here: chealth.canoe.
Avatar m tn I've been using Benzac Facial Wash( Benzoyl Peroxide 5% ) for 2 yrs , it was great for me because oiliness was reduced and the growth of pimples was stopped. But unfortunately its Company (Galderma) stopped distributing it in the Philippines. I've tried PanOxyl Bar ( Benzoyl Peroxide 5% ) and PanOxyl Soap Free Cleanser , but the results didn't satisfy me as how Benzac did . my question is , what other Benzoyl Peroxide soaps can you recommend?
Avatar m tn Hi, I'm Rhyan, from the Philippines. Well, I'm an acne sufferer.. 3 months ago, I was perfectly looking good, my face was clear, there was pimples but you could rarely see them on my face and they were getting healed naturally and fast. But now, everything turned upside down, I had breakouts that almost covered my entire face by acne in just 3 months!

Avatar m tn //www.psoriasis.org/treatment/psoriasis/diet/ There are many lotions, sprays, creams and tablets available for the treatment. Do consult a skin specialist who can put you on a rotational treatment so that your psoriasis does not get used to one treatment. Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
Avatar m tn Hello, Fusidic acid and minocycline are both antibiotics which are used for the treatment of acne. Treatment options include topical and oral antibiotics, topical retinoids, hormonal therapy, dermabrasion , phototherapy and laser resurfacing. Normally a combination of treatments is followed and if nothing proves effective then dermabrasion and laser therapy are useful. You can discuss these treatment options with your dermatologist.
Avatar m tn Two days after the rocephin treatment I noticed a very small amount of discharge after a long run in which I became very dehydrated. I had a gram stain performed and they found occasional puss cells but no microorganisms. I also had a urinalysis done and it was normal.

Avatar m tn Two months ago in the Philippines I had pink eye or conjunctivitis in my left eye. After a week, I thought it had healed, but it went to my right eye and then both eyes were red and my vision was blurry. I then went to the eye doctor and he gave me anti-biotic eye drops. They didn't seem to work though. I was still waking up with blurry vision and discharge sticking my eyes shut, and my eyes were sensitive to light and hurt when I tried to read the computer screen.

Avatar n tn I found two articles in the medical literature about electrothermolysis, just uncontrolled pilot studies, but neither referred to acne treatment--one was about treating facial seborrhea, the other was about hair removal. So basically, I don't know. There are other acne treatments you might want to consider, such as laser treatments to minimize oil glands, They are safe and have shown modest effectiveness, though it's not always long lasting.
Avatar m tn I went to the dermatologist and wasn't able to see a doctor, instead I was seeing by an intern who didn't seem to know what she was doing but anyway, she prescribed me what my primary care physician had already put me on for 10days; SMZ/TMP DS 800-160 Tab Interpharm to treat my infected acne. She told me she's going to keep me on it for 8 months. Now, if this is an antibiotic, is it normal to be prescribed for that long? and for acne grade III?
Avatar n tn 1) What is the current and most effective treatment for Acne Inversa? (Most of my reading online was from relatively dated material) I have been taking Accutane for approximately one month and have so far not seen any favorable results. I have also read that Accutane does little for Acne Inversa. Is there truth to this? 2) I have read that Carbon Dioxide Laser Ablation may be just as effective as skin grafts, however, it was an emerging treatment.
Avatar m tn m asking if you know any doctor specializing in the treatment of his case who resides in Mania, Philippines. Any help would be dearly appreciated.

Avatar n tn sounds like an adult version of acne known as acne rosacea- google it or check google images - it is completely different to the teenage form of acne vulgaris
Avatar m tn I've been to about two different dermatologist because of my acne, for some reason they become VERY swollen and red. I had to change my doctor, because the first treatment I had a bad reaction to the pills he prescribed. My second dermatologist just prescribed me clindoxyl gel. I've been using it for about more than a year now. I should have stopped by after 3 months into the treatment, however I couldn't, and now I feel silly going into his office after all this time lost.
