Answers:
people do not become immune to antibiotics!.

bacteria become resistant to antibiotics!.

By definition, just about every bacteria on you and in you is resistant to Septra, because you've been taking it for the past year!. If the bacteria were NOT resistant, they could not be living on you!.

But the important thing is , for you, that this antibiotics has reasonably good activity against propionibacterium, the bugs that cause acne!. So it is inhibiting growth of them, and making your acne!.

Continue to take it!. There is no harm at periodically stopping it to see what happens!. How else would you know if you still need it or not!? Your goal is to get off of it as soon as you can, but be aware that this drug is safe to take for years at a time!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well all i know is that if you take a pill so many times, your body will be used to it, and not have the same effect anymore!. So maybe that's it, i didn't really answer your question wel maybe i did I'm not sure i understand the question
