References痤瘡是美國最常見的皮膚疾病，屬於持續性的發炎性皮膚問題。治療的目標是針對導致痤瘡的四大主要因素：皮脂分泌過多、皮膚細胞堆積、痤瘡丙酸桿菌定植以及由此產生的發炎。外用維他命A酸可同時預防與減少粉刺，並抑制炎症，從而有效控制發炎性與非發炎性病變。過氧化苯甲醯是一種非處方殺菌劑，不會促進細菌抗藥性。雖然外用和口服抗生素單獨使用亦有作用，但與外用維他命A酸聯合使用可增強其療效。在抗生素治療中加入過氧化苯甲醯，可降低細菌抗藥性的風險。口服異維A酸已獲批准用於治療嚴重且頑固的痤瘡，並須透過 iPLEDGE 計劃進行給藥。
Acne, the most common skin condition in the United States, is a persistent inflammatory skin problem. Treatment aims at addressing four main factors contributing to acne: excessive sebum production, skin cell buildup, Propionibacterium acnes colonization, and resulting inflammation. Topical retinoids effectively manage both inflammatory and non-inflammatory lesions by preventing and reducing comedones while addressing inflammation. Benzoyl peroxide, available over-the-counter, is a bactericidal agent without promoting bacterial resistance. While topical and oral antibiotics work alone, combining them with topical retinoids enhances their effectiveness. Adding benzoyl peroxide to antibiotic therapy lowers the risk of bacterial resistance. Oral isotretinoin, approved for severe and stubborn acne, is administered through the iPLEDGE program.

常見的痤瘡局部治療包括 benzoyl peroxide (BP)、salicylic acid、抗生素、抗生素與 BP 的組合、retinoids、retinoids 與 BP 或抗生素的組合、azelaic acid 以及 sulfone 類藥物。長期以來，口服抗生素一直是痤瘡治療的關鍵，特別是對於中度至重度痤瘡。當與局部維A酸和血壓一起使用時，效果最佳。常用的口服抗生素包括 tetracycline、doxycycline、minocycline、trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMX)、trimethoprim、erythromycin、azithromycin、amoxicillin 以及 cephalexin，皆有證據顯示其有效性。
Common topical treatments for acne include benzoyl peroxide (BP), salicylic acid, antibiotics, combinations of antibiotics with BP, retinoids, combinations of retinoids with BP or antibiotics, azelaic acid, sulfone agents. Oral antibiotics have long been a key part of acne treatment, especially for moderate to severe cases. They work best when used alongside a topical retinoid and BP. Tetracycline, doxycycline, minocycline, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMX), trimethoprim, erythromycin, azithromycin, amoxicillin, cephalexin have all shown evidence of effectiveness.

始終建議使用外用維A酸來治療痤瘡。當使用全身或局部抗生素時，應將其與過氧化苯甲酰和類視黃醇同時使用，但療程僅限 12 週。Isotretinoin 保留用於對其他治療無反應的嚴重痤瘡病例。雖然有部分證據支持雷射療法、化學換膚等物理治療，以及純化蜂毒和特定飲食等補充方式，但其有效性仍未確定。
Topical retinoids are always recommended for treating acne. When using systemic or topical antibiotics, it's important to combine them with benzoyl peroxide and retinoids, but only for up to 12 weeks. Isotretinoin is reserved for severe cases of acne that haven't responded to other treatments. While there's some evidence for physical treatments like laser therapy and chemical peels, as well as complementary approaches such as purified bee venom and certain diets, their effectiveness is still uncertain.

幾項研究探討了不同食物對痤瘡患者的影響。研究顯示，與攝取高血糖負荷食物的患者相比，食用低血糖負荷食物的患者往往出現較少的痤瘡斑點。另有研究關注乳製品與痤瘡的關係，發現牛奶中的某些蛋白質似乎比脂肪或乳製品的總含量更易誘發痤瘡。其他研究則主要集中於 omega-3 脂肪酸和 γ-亞麻油酸，提示痤瘡患者可能受益於多食魚類和健康油脂，以提升這些脂肪酸的攝取量。近期關於益生菌治療痤瘡的研究顯示出令人期待的結果，但仍需更多研究驗證這些初步發現。
Several studies have evaluated the significance of the glycemic index of various foods and glycemic load in patients with acne, demonstrating individuals with acne who consume diets with a low glycemic load have reduced acne lesions compared with individuals on high glycemic load diets. Dairy has also been a focus of study regarding dietary influences on acne; whey proteins responsible for the insulinotropic effects of milk may contribute more to acne development than the actual fat or dairy content. Other studies have examined the effects of omega-3 fatty acid and γ-linoleic acid consumption in individuals with acne, showing individuals with acne benefit from diets consisting of fish and healthy oils, thereby increasing omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acid intake. Recent research into the effects of probiotic administration in individuals with acne present promising results; further study of the effects of probiotics on acne is needed to support the findings of these early studies.

在兩性中，雄激素被認為是促成因素之一，因其可增加皮脂分泌。另一常見因素是皮膚上痤瘡皮膚桿菌的過度增生。
治療通常採用外用藥物，如壬二酸、過氧化苯甲酰和水楊酸。抗生素與類維生素A可外用或口服治療痤瘡，但抗生素使用可能導致耐藥性。某些口服避孕藥對女性痤瘡有幫助。早期使用異維A酸積極治療，可降低長期併發症的風險。
○ 治療
阿達帕林凝膠因抑制皮脂分泌並減少痤瘡復發而廣泛使用。起始使用時若劑量過高，可能刺激皮膚。過氧化苯甲酰與壬二酸則適用於發炎性痤瘡，因其具抗炎作用。一般需持續使用超過 1 個月才能見效。
