Is it bad to use antibiotic ointment?

Are you talking about neosporin or the like?
I don't think that it is harmful to use, but rather contradictory, since the break outs are caused from trapped oil. Neosporin has a petroleum base so you may just be defeating the purpose

Thank you stormy69 . Previously I used neosporin but right now I am using different brand because in Canada I don't see that at shop therefore I ordered online. I think it is going to take little bit time. I am using antibiotic ointment three times a day. Is it bad?

Have you tried a product for sensitive skin acne? Like clearasil? I think it's better than a greasy ointment. See this link for a lot more information on acne. http://www.acne.org/

Thank you for your big help Did you ever tried this one? I am going to try

Antibiotic cream is better in the long run than tablets as tablets kill the good stuff inside your stomach etc... You also get immune easier!

Be careful that it doesn't make your skin more sensative to sun light, or you will get red cheeks VERY quickly when you go out, which can be embarising, but within a few months of coming of its gone (which is good if it does happen to you, happened to me)

Antibiotic ointments such as Neosporin and Hydrocortisone are used to heal abrasions and burns. I do not recommend using it excessively on your entire face for a long period of time. It may cause an allergic reaction, and rash or small blisters can erupt. There are antibiotic ointments that are designed to combat acne and it's gentle on the skin. You should visit your dermatologist for a product that's designed for your acne prone skin. If you can't afford to see a dermatologist, ask a pharmist at your local pharmacy to recommend a product to you.

Hello pretty lady, I am using now clindoxyl gel for pimples I have very bad reaction fro it (redness, scaling, itchiness and severe swelling) but I would like to keep using it because it seems to kill the pimples, my q is how can I reduse this bad reaction I am having? If I keep using it will the reaction go away? What do you think I should do my face is driving me crazy I would love to have clear face, and my other q is this gel will help with the acne scars (brown spots)? Thank you , it is nice to have someone professional in the forum

Hello, SHAHRAZAD. Clindoxyl Gel is a combination of 1% clindamycin phosphate and 5% benzoyl peroxide. It's well tolerated in the treatment of moderate acne. You apply a thin film of gel, solution, or lotion to the affected area 2 times a day. The common side effects are burning, itching, peeling skin, reddened skin and skin dryness. If you are experiencing these side effects, limit your use to once a day or every other day. If your skin doesn't get better, talk to your dermatologist. Your dermatologist can determine if it is safe for you to continue taking Clindoxyl. Unfortunately, Clindoxyl Gel doesn't fade dark spots, it only reduces acne. Bleaching creams may help fade the dark spots. Glycolic peels can also improve your skin's appearance. Thank you for the compliment. Good luck.

Thank you pretty lady for replying and for the good advice
