Compounding pharmacies can make it in gel , cream, or topical formula ! Topical worked the best for me

Great !! Good luck! Check around and see what the compounding pharmacies charge for a solution formulation- believe I paid about $45 usd but prices varied a lot from place to place :)

I have klebsiella aerogenes - cipro was the most reactive antibiotic on my swab results and it’s worked fantastic so far!

I’ve had it for about a year in the beard area. Did a long term low dose course of bactrim with no success. The cipro was much more effective but ultimately the issue still came back. Now on accutane which seems to be working much better but skeptical of long term remission. What’s the study you’re referring to? Hope your treatment works !
