Acne, also known as acne vulgaris, is a long-term skin disease that occurs when hair follicles are clogged with dead skin cells and oil from the skin. It is characterized by blackheads or whiteheads, pimples, oily skin, and possible scarring. Erythromycin is a very commonly used antibiotic for acne. It has several advantages over tetracycline. First, it has anti-inflammatory properties that help reduce redness in lesions in addition to killing bacteria. Mechanism of action. P. acne initiates inflammatory acne. The bacteria is usually present in small numbers. P. acne proliferates in the lipid rich environment of the microcomedo and produces proinflammatory mediators that cause papules, pustules and cysts. Erythromycin is available in enteric-coated tablets, slow-release capsules, oral suspensions, ophthalmic solutions, ointments, gels, enteric-coated capsules, non enteric-coated tablets, non enteric-coated capsules, and injections. The usual dose of erythromycin is 250mg to 1,000mg taken 4 times a day. Sometimes it's taken twice a day. The dose may be lower for children. Try to space the doses evenly throughout the day - for example, first thing in the morning, at about midday, late in the afternoon and at bedtime.
