As such, I rate this product at a good 3.5 out of 5.

Aknemycin Plus is an alcoholic solution containing the antibiotic erythromycin 4 % and the retinoid tretinoin 0.025 %. It comes in a brown glass bottle that has a self-sealing and self-sterilizing sponge applicator. However, you should not use this medicine if:

a) you are pregnant, trying for a baby or breast-feeding one already.

b) you have ever had an allergic reaction to this or any other medicine.

Aknemycin Plus occasionally causes skin irritation, itching, and redness; not to mention bleaching of cloths, towels and pillows. People also do not talk highly of this product. Just about an average product is all what I would say.

I started using Aknemycin Plus about about 2 weeks now, after trying every acne treatment recommended by my doctor. I have really oily and sensitive skin and this treatment has dried my skin out, but unlike other products my skin is not itchy, peeling and uncomfortable. I would be recommending this product as the last resort treatment. I rate it 4.5 out of 5.

A superb product but as usual it has the same side effects that most acne treatments have- dryness and size of the pimples. Will work if persisted enough.

i used to use pure tretinoin(Retin A) that had high concentration of 0.1 % gel but this Aknemycin Plus by Hermal. I got it in out of States but I will ask my doctor to write me prescription for it when the bottle runs out. My face never looked so better in several months becasue my face reacts less sensitive to this medication, therefore less red and pretty much prevent a lot of zits that could grow overnight. I recommend to everyone. Just give it a try when you seem to lose all your faith in other products. It surely deserves a 4.5 out of 5.
