Off Label Prescription Drugs for Acne
Acne is the most common skin disorder affecting millions of
people each year. Acne usually affects teenagers due to hormones
that over produce oil in the oil glands of pores in the face.
These pores get clogged with the oil causing infection by
bacteria that feed off it. The end result is pimples.

the counter treatments are extremely effective; however people
that suffer from moderate to severe acne usually see little

prescription medicine that has shown to be
effective in treating acne but was not originally prescribed for

women who have severe acne, use birth control to help keep their
acne at bay. It has been shown to be safe and effective from
break outs and most sufferers are pleased with the results.

option.
Antibiotics are other drugs that weren't originally intended for
the use of acne. However, pimples are caused by bacteria
underneath the skin and if your skin doesn't have any harmful
bacteria, you will have less pimples. |
