I am 51 & in good health, but I have problems with adult acne. I am allergic to Tetricycline. What are the pros/cons to taking Amoxicillin 500mg for 2 months at a time? I just don't want to cause other problems while trying to fix my acne.

Hi Anon,

Welcome to EmpowHER. As far as prescribing medication, we can't tell you what you should take.  You would have to talk to your doctor or a dermatologist as to what would be best for your acne.

Here are some resources for you
