Are antibiotics (azithromycin orally and clindamycin as cream) sufficient on treating acne and post acne spots or is it really necessary to take tretinoin? With the use of just two of those antibiotics for 2 months, most of my active pimples are gone and i am left with only dark spots. My question is should i continue my treatment with just antibiotics or should I go for tretinoin?

Please visit a dermatologist before self prescriptions of antibiotics or retinoids. There is a guideline to follow based on the type of acne you have. Regards
