OUTSIDE HELP: ‘TRADITIONAL’ HEALING THERAPIESDrug Therapies - Oral AntibioticsAntibiotics or bactericides are substances that kill bacteria. They are usually prescribed for more severe cases of skin breakouts. When they are taken internally they have a better chance of effecting your bloodstream and decreasing the bacteria in your hair follicles than topical antibiotics. When the bacteria is reduced, there is less chance of developing inflammation.Tetracycline is the most commonly prescribed antibiotic to treat acne. It is one of the least expensive and it works by reducing the bacteria that produces free fatty acids which irritate plugged pores. This results in inflammation. It also works by reducing the amount of lipase in the sebaceous secretions - in other words by thinning the oil and wax which cause the pore to plug in the first place. Antacids and dairy products can interfere with its absorption and it cannot be taken by pregnant women or young children due to certain side effects. Other antibiotics also commonly prescribed include Erythromycin, Doxycycline, Minocycline [Myocin], and Trimethoprim-Sulfa and Sulfones [Bactrim DS, Cotrim DS, Spetra DS]. One more IMPORTANT thing about antibiotics. When you use an antibiotic it effects all the bacteria in your entire body. This includes the ‘friendly flora’ in your intestinal tract such as Bifidus, Acidophilus, and other Bacilli which help you digest and eliminate your food. Not to mention, if you are a women, all of the friendly bacteria that keep your vagina balanced and in good working order. If you take antibiotics for any kind of infection, it is important to replace the ‘friendly flora’ with supplemental bacteria which any good doctor will recommend for you. Without taking them you are in for a nasty imbalance in your bowels, Gastrointestinal Distress, and Vaginal Candidiasis (yeast infections). Eating yogurt with active cultures also helps.
