| Pros | i have been taking this antibiotic for 3 months.for the 1st two months my skin was great.just had one bad week out of the 3 months |
|---|---|
| Cons | i have found that i have had an upset stomach a few times and also stomach cramps |
| Bottom line | it is a very good treatment that is affordable and also works.the only downfall is that sometimes you may get a few stomach cramps or a bad stomach. |

| Pros | I been taking Doxycycline for about 2 weeks now, and my back is getting pretty clearer than it was before |
|---|---|
| Cons | My face is getting better slowly, I was just wonering if someone could tell me when I will start seeing perfectly clear skin, or close to it? I still got alot more pills to take in my bottle. But i sometimes feel its a waste of time taking them. |
| Bottom line | I am sure this is a good drug to use for acne, but i would like someone to tell me how long its going to take for my skin to completely clear, then i can make an accurate assumtion. |

| Pros | Doxy has worked pretty well for me, I would say about 90% of my acne has gone, and some weeks I have had a totally clear face and my skin never looked better. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Ive not had any bad effects people talk about like stomach aches, but ive never been stupid enough to take it without food or lots of water, why? because the label tells you not to do that. |
| Bottom line | Doxy has given me a huge confidence boost, my skin has never been so clear, but my question is will it last? im not entirely confident im seeing small signs after 3 months of it getting slighty worse, but only very slighty I just wonder were I will be at with it another 3 months down the line. So eat before you take it and throw a good amount of water down your neck and you wont have any problems. |

| Pros | ummm it seemed to be working a little |
|---|---|
| Cons | It make you REALLY SICK. if taken on an empty stomache. |
| Bottom line | i took it and thought well i will eat after i take this... so i added a littke bit of food after i took it and bam! everything came up..it was scary. I hate throwing up. I think iam gona go back to minocycline. Doxy has too many restrictions! minocycline you can just take it and be done...Doxy... you will prob get sick as ever! Next time i will listen when they say "don't take on empty stomache" just did not work for me. |

| Pros | It does clear my face, but not 100%. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Terrible belly/head aches if not taken with water/food. Once I didn't eat enough and actually puked! |
| Bottom line | I am also doing photo-facial laser treatments for my face, so I have to go off these meds 3 days in advance. This definitely interferes with the effectiveness of the antibiotics. For best results, you HAVE to consistently take this. I used to take Doryx, which was a godsend for me: I had perfect skin with it! But stupid Kaiser will only give you generics, so I'm stuck with this Rx, and it's definitely not as good. Even worse: I have to take it morning and night instead of just once a day. I'd say give this a shot if your Dr. recommends it, but BE CONSISTENT! |

| Pros | Works great after 3 weeks of use. Does make you burn sensitive, but actually allowed me to tan better! |
|---|---|
| Cons | Acne came back within 2 weeks of going off Doxy after both times I used it. Does caused some nausea at first, but got better. |
| Bottom line | may work, but still come back when done. i don't know how to get rid of this stuff on my face. |

| Pros | is used to kill bacteria, and seems to be working well. |
|---|---|
| Cons | makes you very nauscious if not taken after a meal :/ |
| Bottom line | I have severe cystic acne and I've been taking 2 100mg of this a day for about a week and have already seen a 50% improvement in my existing acne. On top of that, i have had barely any new breakouts. I have only been taking the doxycycline and washing my face with noxema cream clenser twice a day and it has helped. I feel more confident and overall happy. It doesnt hurt anymore to move my face or smile. I hope this will completely clear me... there is hope! :) |
