How can I share a picture of this infection? It's super important. It's been almost two days since I started using Bactoclav like my doctor suggested.

I'm currently taking Acutret tablets and I've heard that using any cosmetic cream while on this medication might not be a good idea. Can you tell me why that is or what might happen if I do use some creams?

When taking Acutret (Isotretinoin), it is generally recommended to avoid using any cosmetic creams that contain harsh ingredients, as Isotretinoin can make your skin more sensitive and prone to irritation. It is best to use gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizers and sunscreens. Applying creams with harsh ingredients may lead to increased skin irritation, redness, and peeling. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider or dermatologist for specific recommendations on skincare products while taking Acutret.

I'm currently taking erythromycin tablets for my acne and I'm curious about how long they take to digest. Can you tell me more about that?

Erythromycin is an antibiotic commonly used to treat acne. The digest time, also known as the absorption time, of erythromycin tablets can vary depending on several factors, such as the dosage form, individual metabolism, and food intake. Typically, erythromycin tablets are absorbed into the bloodstream within 1-4 hours after oral administration. However, the exact digest time may range from 30 minutes to 6 hours. Here's a rough breakdown of what you can expect: - 30 minutes to 1 hour: Erythromycin starts getting absorbed into the bloodstream. - 1-2 hours: Peak absorption levels are reached. - 2-4 hours: Erythromycin starts taking effect against acne-causing bacteria. - 4-6 hours: The antibiotic is fully absorbed and distributed throughout the body. Keep in mind that these times are approximate and may vary from person to person.

I'm 28 and I've been dealing with these malar bags. I really don't want to go under the knife, so I've been trying different massages and even icing them. Is there anything else I can do to help reduce them or should I consider other treatments? I'm just really hoping to avoid surgery if possible.

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
