I used this a few years ago and it worked wonderfully! I got so many compliments on my skin! However, I then went off of it because I had been on it for a few months. While at first my skin still looked good, then I broke out so badly for the next couple of months. I went back on it again 3 months ago, thinking it would have the same effect as it did the first time and get rid of my acne again. However, although it did work for the first two months, it seemed to lose its effectiveness or I simply became immune to it. Either way, it stopped working and now I am on a different medication which seems to be working for now.

Pros

  • Clears up acne EXTREMELy well first time you use it, can mash it up if it is too big of a pill for you to swallow, good for body acne, gets rid of cysts on your face relatively quickly

Cons

  • Stopped working for me after two months (all my sore zits came back like wildfire around my neckline), seems to make teeth look more yellow (I just whiten them), tastes disgusting, pill is HUGE
  • moderately severe
  • for a few months
  • $ 25
  • I recommend using this treatment.

for taking this pill everyday (I've been taking it for about 7 months) and the side effects gotten, this is not worth taking. I believe it stopped the huge cystic acne and controlled my face a little, but not enough to recommend this anti-biotic.

Pros

  • cleared up neck and jawline acne

Cons

  • makes me feel sick if taken without food (lightheaded, dissy)
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • $ 15
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.

This didn't work for me at all. It seems to work for some people, but I guess it depends on your body. I've tried it a few times with no success, and each time I started it again I would get an attack of thrush within 48 hours.

Pros

  • None for me.

Cons

  • Didn't fix acne
  • Thrush
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • $ 15
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.

I've been on Doryx for 1 year now. It has kept me 90%-99% clear. Now its starting to wear off, just as my derm said it would. I'm starting to break out again.

Pros

  • Works very well after about 1 month

Cons

  • Stops working after 1 year.
  • moderate
  • for more than a year
  • $ 25
  • I recommend using this treatment.

I was on this antibiotic for 2 months. My forehead cleared up, but the rest of my face was breaking out pretty badly. I'm also using Atralin gel at the same time, so the breaking out or purging was probably caused by or with the gel, and not the antibiotic itself.

Pros

  • Somewhat affordable. Doesn't taste bad.

Cons

  • Didn't improve skin. Pills were hard to swallow due to its size.
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • $ 25
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.

I would never recommend this to anyone. My dermatologist did not tell me this was a temporary solution. When my acne cleared while on Doryx, I thought it was permanent and I was so happy. About a month after I stopped taking Doryx, my acne returned 20 times worse and that is not an exaggeration. It ruined my face and now I am uncertain of what to do because my face will not return to its state prior to taking Doryx. All antibiotics are temporary and your acne may return worse, like mine did.

Pros

  • Temporarily clears acne.

Cons

  • Only temporary.
  • Nausea.
  • Yellowing/Browning of teeth.
  • Sensitivity to sun.
  • moderate
  • for a few months
  • $ 25
  • I do not recommend using this treatment.
