| Pros | Not Sure Yet |
|---|---|
| Cons | Headaches, dizziness |
| Bottom line | ive been using this for almost 3 weeks, it seems to be working on the back and chest, but i honestly dont see improvement on my face, i think this may be because i am also on retin a which is known to "surface" all of your acne but i dont kno. But be cautious to take it easy when excercising. i work out alot and i am in pretty good shape, and the last 3 times i have gone to the gym i have received instense headaches and dizziness. I vomited thelast time and i am not even working out as hard as i did before using the medication i dont know why exactly this happenes, but i think the vomiting may of been excercising with a stomach full of water since my mouth dries out so quickly(which is also from this drug) so i drank over a gallon of water. so yeah just be careful. in the meantime i am going to pray i see results soon |

| Pros | I have adult cystic acne, and it cleared most of the larger cysts within about a week. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Horrible allergic reaction!! I wish I could still use this product, but after only 2 and a half weeks of use I had a really really bad reaction. Fever, chills, couldn't breathe, extreme itching...just plain bad. |
| Bottom line | It's a wonderful product, if you aren't allergic. |

| Pros | None for me |
|---|---|
| Cons | Severe reaction. Had to be taken to the ER. Severe joint pain, hot flashes, cold chills, vomiting, other intestinal issues, fever, extreme pain in back, and blood in my urine. Occurred <3 hours after the 6th time I had taken it |
| Bottom line | Might work for some just be careful. ER doc didn't want to say it was the antibiotic. Talked to 2 other doctors and they told me I was lucky and that next time I may not be so fortunate. There are other alternatives to this treatment. I had no idea that I was allergic until after the fact. Been suggested to me that I need to have a medical alert braclet for this. And I am not one to rush to the hospital unless my arm is falling off. And I have no other medical ailments that could explain it. |

| Pros | Works quite well, although not 100%. I'd say it cleared it up by 75% on my face and 40% on my back. Definetly made the big ones smaller. |
|---|---|
| Cons | About 5 years ago started with 2/day and had a mild rash, cut back to 1/day and had no problems. Stopped after a year after it lost its effectiveness, came back 6 months ago and its doing pretty good. |
| Bottom line | Works good for an on again off again solution. My doc suggested using this for 6-12 months, then switching to another drug (can't remember the name) when this loses its effectiveness then back to this again in another 6-12 months. Sounds like a good plan. Really no problems with the allergic reactions. |

| Pros | It has been making me break out rather than helping my moderate acne that i have on my cheeks. Called the derm and they said it would get worse before better so I'm hoping i'll see improvement soonn.. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Breakouttttt, loss of appetite (unless that's good haha), fatigue |
| Bottom line | Very affordable, very strong, but it may take awhile to work and you may get worse before you get better, i still have yet to be better but we'll hope |

| Pros | None |
|---|---|
| Cons | Experienced severe allergic reactions and was hospitalized. My spleen and liver became abnormally large, my body temperature fluctated (head was hot, feet was cold) resulting in seizure-like body-shaking, and I broke into a rash (possibly hives). |
| Bottom line | I almost died 2x; now that I think of it, I wished I sued my doctor. Please be extremely cautious, and remember that you know you're own body better than your doctor. |

| Pros | clear up acne a little |
|---|---|
| Cons | got hives!! |
| Bottom line | this worked well at first I think (although the clear up may simply have been a good time of the month hormone wise) but after 10 days of no side effects, I broke out into hives that took 4 days to go away. |

| Pros | Cleared up my acne perfectly very quickly! |
|---|---|
| Cons | I stopped taking it, and five months later I was very stressed and my acne came back, so I've been using it again for a couple days |
| Bottom line | I experienced no side affects, and I am on it again, so I have been very pleased with the results. |
