Antibiotics For Acne

Antibiotics for acne is normally use as treatment after over-the-counter treatments don’t work well for ones acne problem. There are two things that antibiotics does against acne. Firstly, It acts like an anti-inflammatory medicine and tries to exterminate bacteria in your body (This includes those bacteria that are beneficial to your body). P.acnes, the bacteria that causes acne, is destroyed in the process.

Is using antibiotics for acne the most effective acne treatment ? Or is it yet another overrated acne treatment? Below I shall talk about three reasons why you should not use antibiotics treatment, and should never depend on it for long-term acne treatment.

The first reason is that it is not possible for antibiotics to eradicate all your acne problem from its root. When you use antibiotics for acne, you are slaughtering all the bacteria in your body, and that includes good bacteria that assist in your body’s digestion? It is than not viable to depend on antibiotics for long term acne treatment, period.

The truth is that, bacteria is EVERYWHERE, it is virtually impossible for you to totally annihilate bacteria. One seconds you kill all, another million of their blood brothers appears. If it is not possible to totally get rid of bacteria, it is also not possible to use antibiotics for acne. No doubt about it. Yes! I do think that for a short period of time, it might be able to provide some help to improve your acne condition, however, using antibiotic for acne for long term treatment is unfeasible.

An acne condition is similar to a flu condition. It is not possible to get rid of all the flu virus in your body. The same goes for acne; to eradicate all the bacteria off your body is something that can’t be done. Similar to treating flu, the way to prevent bacteria from spreading is to prevent growing inhabitant for it. Destroy homes of the billions and trillions of bacteria instead of trying to nail down each and every one of them.

Another reason why antibiotics will not work for long term is because when it is prescribed overtime; bacteria will build up resistance against it. Thus, to use antibiotics for acne as a long-term acne treatment sounds illogical.

Lastly, when you take in antibiotics, it is actually also killing the good bacteria in your body, and this will definitely affect your general health. As what you have learned from in your science class, there are good bacteria in our body that actually helps out in your body’s digestive system.

If you kill these good bacteria, it will certainly affect the digestion process in your body. If your digestive system slows down, toxins in your body will build up. Until the point where toxins in your body is too much for your kidney to handle, it will cast the entire toxin to your skin. Suppose that if toxin were to be ditch away to your skin, acne is going to haunted you for life.
