It is completely unhealthy practice. Amipolx is for oral intake only. It is not effective if you apply it topically. This is a coincidence that your pimples have reduced after applying it in face. It is total wastage of medicine. There are effective treatments available in market for treatment of pimple. Those are effective and safe.
Advice
1.     Immediately stop appling Ampilox in face
2.     Apply Clindac – A gel 1% in face daily at bed time for 1 month
3.     Capsule Doxy – 1 (doxycycline 50 mg) daily per oral after meal for 1 month
4.     Have a good sleep of 8 hours and drink 3 – 4 liters of water daily
5.     Do not squeeze pimples as it will cause scarring
6.     Try to avoid use of unbranded cosmetics unnecessarily
7.      Have patience - any treatment of acne may take time to start showing effect
