Tetracycline and its derivatives are the most commonly used oral medications for back acne medicine vulgaris. Tetracycline hydrochloride is known to penetrate sebocytes and keratinocytes to reach the follicular canal.6 As with topical antibiotics, development of resistance of P adult acne product to tetracycline is a potential problem,18, 19 and this should be suspected if a patient's back acne medicine worsens after several months of treatment. Doxycycline is a lipophilic tetracycline derivative with demonstrated efficacy in the treatment of inflammatory back acne medicine. Like tetracycline, resistance of P adult acne product to doxycycline has been reported.18 Minocycline... a lipophilic derivative of tetracycline, achieves excellent penetration into the follicular canal and is often effective in cases of back acne medicine that have not responded to treatment with other oral antibiotics.6 There are fewer reports of resistance of P adult acne blemish control to minocycline than with tetracycline and doxycycline. While tetracycline should be taken on an empty stomach, doxycycline and minocycline can be taken with food, which should decrease GI tract upset.
