-To characterize ​the international distribution ​of oral antibiotic ​use, specifically ​antibiotic ​type and duration, for acne in two age groups: youth (ages 12 to 20) and adults ​(ages 21 to 40).+1. Describe ​the prevalence ​of systemic ​antibiotic ​treatment for acne by age and gender and to compare how systemic ​antibiotic ​prevalence for acne varies by country. 
 +2. Describe the prevalence of systemic isotretinoin treatment for acne by age and gender and to compare how systemic isotretinoin prevalence for acne varies by country. 
 +3. Characterize systemic antibiotic use for acne by type, dose, course ​duration, ​ ​number of courses, and pathway course (which antibiotic started first) by age and gender and to compare how this use varies by country. 
 +4. Characterize systemic isotretinoin use for acne by dose, course duration, number of courses by age and gender and to compare how this use varies by country. 
 +5. Examine the frequency ​and duration of antibiotic use prior to isotretinoin prescribing ​(ie  How long course of antibiotics before a patient is switched ​to isotretinoinvaries by data source and country
