<p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> Oral isotretinoin and azithromycin are two important drugs used in management of acne. Their mode of action is different and thus theoretically the combination of these two should have a synergistic effect.</p><p class="abstract"><strong>Methods:</strong> In this randomized comparative trial 100 patients were randomized into two groups. One received oral isotretinoin (0.3 mg/kg/day) alone and the other group received pulsed azithromycin (500 mg/day for three days in a week for 8 weeks) in addition to oral isotretinoin. Improvement in acne was noted as percentage improvement in mean acne score.<strong></strong></p><p class="abstract"><strong>Results:</strong> No statistically significant difference was noted in the improvement in mean acne score of both the groups.</p><p><strong>Conclusions:</strong> Addition of pulsed azithromycin to low dose oral isotretinoin does not offer a better treatment outcome in patients of moderate to severe acne. </p>
