Abstract
The strong activity of metroindazole against obligate anaerobes suggested that the organism Proprionobacterium acnes and the disease acne vulgaris might respond to treatment with this drug. Thirty-three clinical isolated of P. acnes were tested and found to be highly resistant to metronidazole. Prospects for its successful use in acne are remote.Entities:
