Antibiotics are a useful acne medication especially when the acne is in an inflammatory stage. Antibiotics work by killing bacteria found in acne. They may be applied to the skin topically or taken as pills.

Another acne medication often used effectively is the birth control pill. This is especially effective for women who start with Adult acne in later years. Even diuretics have been found to be useful for women who suffer breakouts at certain times of the month.

Most acne problems require prolonged acne medication treatment as acne is never truly cured. (It can only be controlled.)

Accutane is probably the most effective acne medication on the market, but many doctors are reluctant to prescribe it because of its noted side effects.
