I have had a headache for two days in a row now, and am wondering if I should go to my doctors and change it :S I have only been on it for a week now and can already see the results (the doctors said we should wait 2 weeks and if no change we should go back to him...)

The thing is, I feel the sebomin is working and so I don't really want to stop it... but if it's causing headaches, and am having to take paraceptamol everytime I take a pill it'll be a bit ridiculus lol. I also don't know if there's anything wrong with taking paraceptamol along with sebomin...

So... HELP!?!

I have been on antibiotics for about 18 months now... i am currently takin sebomin for around 6 days now and i havent experienced any headaches.

I was on oxytetracycline before these and they made me feel sick after taking them so this is the reason for the doctor to change them.

Sounds like maybe these tablets arent right for you... i`d def go back and get them changed, i was on Erythromycin this was a good one for me, but i think my body got used to them and they stopped working properly after 12 months, i then took the oxytetracycline for about 7 months til they made me feel sick, i`m just hoping these sobomin work for me.

Hope you get it worked out

Minocycline gave me headaches. It's tough because I was on several (unrelated) prescriptions and the headaches weren't immediate with minocycline, only after I had been taking it a week or two. But then after about a month or two of taking it, I began to break out with hives which I had never experienced on my other prescriptions which I have been on much longer. I ignored the hives several days, not sure of the cause, but then I read up on minocycline and figured I was allergic to it so I stopped taking it. Took about a week for the hives to clear up.

Be careful.

You get a short-term effect in the first week or two and then it usually takes about 6 weeks.
