Ok, well I get my progress . I am starting post Clindamycin Pledgets in mourning, Zithromax 250 mg once daily for one month, then every other day after that (the pharmacist said it seemed very strong to be using such a powerful drug that intense, but oh lets hope it works) and Retin-A micro gel at night. My complexion is currently about 10 active pimples, cysts no power, red spots, and about 100 small come down near my my chin with my mouth that are the color of my skin. Does anyone have any comments on any products I could use at the same time to help?
I hope I have some answers . lol I never seem to get much.
Reply:Thanks..Actually my derm gave me some. I am on Zithromax once a day for a month, then every other day until It eventually reduces til once a week. I take the Acidophilus once a morning.
Reply:Hey, just a recomendation on Zithromax. Um, 250 mg daily for a month? That does sound a bit too much… But anyway. I would recomend you buy a pro Biotic Acidophilus. See, in your intestines, their is something called 'good bacteria' These things help break down the food you eat.
Zithromax pretty much kills all of this good bacteria. You might notice that you have stomach problems, or feel sick sometimes for no real reason. It's because your body can't break down the food you are eating.
I know, I was on Zithromax for two months before I finally said no more.
Anyway, you can buy Acidophilus at most health food stores, but get a good kind. Make sure that the pills say they are delivered to the intestines, because most of the supplements out there are actually killed by your stomach acid. Doing you no good at all.
The next time you see your doctor, as them about this.
Reply:Day 12- Bad day yesterday, broke out on my chin with about 4 or 5 zits. I began to wonder about the AHA lotion I was using & I found out that it had oil in it so I am guessing it broke me out. Overall complexion is good though. Zithromax really helps clear up breakouts though.
Reply:Day 8- I think I am having a little initial breakout. It may be from the Retin A. or the AHA I started. I have a few new active zits on my cheek where I never get zits but they are really small. My comedones are slowly reducing in numbers.
Well no one really has responded to this so I might just stop the journal,but I am wondering of a good Moisturizer to use in the mourning?
Reply:Day 6- A few active zits. The Retin A micro has kind of a burning sensation but amazingly it isn't drying me out nearly as bad as differin. I am not sure if that is bad sign. But anyways I am moisturizing well so that may be helping. So far no side effects with Zithromax and finally I can eat without waiting like Tetracyclin!
Reply:Day 3-
Only a couple zits…mostly redmarks from my breakout a couple days ago.. I am no ready for the "initial" break out…but the derm said the zithromax will almost reduce that to little or nothing..i hope shes right.
Reply:You're not likely to any good side effects for a little while. You will notice Retin-A side effects pretty quickly, but of the negative variety. There will probably be an initial breakout on it since its much like Accutane, only topical. Your skin will probably burn so use gentle cleansers and apply moisturizers after you get out of the shower. Zithromax should really help out pretty quickly if you have acne caused by bacteria and infections. Its a great great drug for that.
Reply:Day 2-
Same as yesterday barely. I am wondering if I will get an initial break, because I was on differin before a similar drug.
