A simple step-up management scheme often used in the treatment of acne is as follows:
single topical therapy (topical retinoids, benzyl peroxide)
topical combination therapy (topical antibiotic, benzoyl peroxide, topical retinoid)
oral antibiotics: e.g. Oxytetracycline, doxycycline. Improvement may not be seen for 3-4 months. Minocycline is now considered less appropriate due to the possibility of irreversible pigmentation.
Gram negative folliculitis may occur as a complication of long-term antibiotic use - high-dose oral trimethoprim is effective if this occurs
oral isotretinoin: only under specialist supervision
