Gram-negative* folliculitis is characterized by the sudden development of superficial pustules in patients suffering from long-standing rosacea treated with oral and/or topical antibiotics. The long-term use of antibiotics creates an ecological imbalance* of microbial flora, suppressing gram-positive resident organisms.* A variety of gram-negative* bacteria are involved, including Pseudomonas and Enterobacteriaceae. The condition can affect any part of the body. Treatment-resistant folliculitis is only one of the possible complications of extended topical or systemic (oral) antibiotic use in rosacea treatment. To avoid adverse effects, minimize antibiotic use as recommended by a health care professional with expertise in the long-term management of rosacea. "Gram negative” refers to the staining pattern of the organisms in the laboratory. Certain bacteria do not take up a stain known as “Gram.” Author: Peter Wilson.
