Hi everyone,
I took doxycycline for a while and it worked great, just dried out my skin a bit so I decided to pause taking it for ~a week, maybe more, and now i want to resume taking it again. i heard that the bacteria in acne could potentially develop an immunity to the antibiotic in a couple of days though...is that true? will doxycycline still work for me?

thanks everyone!

Should still work. Resistance would only develop while you're on the drug.
