    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Pharmacology

    Background:

    • Antibiotic therapy is a cornerstone in managing acne vulgaris.
    • Therapeutic failure can occur due to various patient-specific and treatment-related factors.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To outline a systematic approach for evaluating patients with acne who do not respond to antibiotic treatment.
    • To identify common reasons for antibiotic failure in acne management.

    Main Methods:

    • Detailed patient history including cosmetic use, medication history, stress levels, and hygiene practices.
    • Physical examination focusing on lesion morphology, sinus tract formation, and Wood's light examination.
    • Oral mucosa fluorescence and surface flora culture with and without antibiotics to assess compliance and absorption.
