I'm 19 and dealing with acne. I'm wondering if it's safe for me to take CIPRODAC 500 as an antibiotic just once a day. Would that be okay for my skin, or is there something else I should consider? Just trying to figure out the best way to handle this.

Ciprodac 500, containing ciprofloxacin, is typically prescribed for bacterial infections, and while it may help with acne caused by bacterial overgrowth, it's essential to consult a dermatologist before taking it, as antibiotics can have side effects, and acne treatment usually involves topical retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, or hormonal therapies, and not necessarily oral antibiotics like ciprofloxacin.

Kojiglo cream for local application for atleast 3 weeks is advised.
