Anyone have experience using Sodium Sulfa 10% Wash Liquid for acne? Sharing my story and potential side effects

I've been using Sodium Sulfa 10% Wash Liquid 355ml for a few weeks now to treat my acne, and I've seen some improvement. However, I'm a bit concerned about the potential side effects. I know it's a topical antibiotic, but the list of severe side effects is quite long, and I've had a few minor irritations and redness on my skin. Has anyone else used this and had similar issues? What should I do? I'm wondering if the irritations are worth it for the acne treatment, or if I should consult my doctor since the side effects can be serious.

I used this for seborrheic dermatitis and it worked wonders, but I had to stop due to severe skin irritation. My doctor suggested switching to a different topical antibiotic.

I swear by this stuff for acne. Just started using it last week and already seeing results. But I am super careful to avoid any skin irritation. Moisturize like crazy. I've not had any issues but I'm glad I'm not seeing any of the side effects.

This stuff really dried out my skin. I had to stop using it. My skin is still red and irritated, which is not good. I should have listened to my doctor earlier. I wish I had never even heard of this medication. I am scared of any antibiotic now.

Please please please be careful with this. I didn't know anything about the severe side effects before using. The risk of liver problems is scary. I was lucky enough not to have any problems but my doctor was very cautious with me after I started using it. I am glad to be off it.

Has anyone tried this for rosacea? I'm curious if it helps with that as well, since it deals with bacteria on the skin.
