Abstract
With many treatments now available for acne vulgaris, the treatment must be tailored to the type and severity of the lesions. Most mild-to-moderate cases can be treated with a benzoyl peroxide product, a topical or oral antibiotic, a topical retinoid, or a combination of these medications. Antibiotic resistance is becoming a challenge for many once-reliable topical and oral antibiotics.
