I used minocyclin for about a year and a half. I didn't have any side effects and it seemed to work for a while. But as soon as things got a little more stressful in college, my acne came back and the pills no longer had any affect. I only see this working for someone who does not suffer from persistant acne.

I was in hospital for a week in september and i was put on minocycline for the last 3 days of that week. I found it worked very well and my skin was very clear. After i was out of hospital my doctor put me on another drug called By-mycin a type of doxycycline this didnt work at all i had alot of breakouts. Now i am back on the minocycine since yesterday and I'm hoping it will work for me again.

I have had moderate acne for the past few months. I was prescribed oral Minocyclin and topical Duac. I experienced severe headaches and went back to my doctor who stopped the Minocyclin. Apparantly Minocyclin can increase the blood pressure in your head (benign intracranial hypertension) and cause severe headaches. BIP is really dangerous and so the drug should be discontinued immediately. Although it had started to clear my skin, I'd rather not have the bad headaches so was happy to stop the minocyclin. The duac alone is working well for me, I've had no more spots so am now just waiting for the scars to heal.

I was using Accutane at one time and it gave me clear and beautiful skin that lasted all of 3-4yrs. It worked so well and I was so pleased with it that when I started developing acne again, I asked for it by name but my doctor wouldn't prescribe it to me(something to do with new regulations). Instead, I was given Minocycline HCL 100mg, and have only used it for one month and noticed right away that it is working very well for me and I intend to continue to use it unless Accutane is granted back in use, but right now, I am pleased to say that I don't need it.
NOTE: I take the mino at night, so I have not experienced any dizziness, although, I think it puts me to sleep.

I have been on it for a week, and my acne is getting worse, although that is expected. I am also taking some creams. Clindoxyn and Differon.

i have a problem sticking with different regimens, but i gave in and stuck with minocycline for about a month now and it works not too bad. i still break out with semi-large pimples every now and then but its better than a million small ones and huge ones

I'm a 41 year old male who has had some form of acne since I was 15 years old. My dermatologist proscribed 100 mg 2X per day Minocycline after I developed perioral dermatitis. I was pleasantly surprised when my face became clearer than it has been in decades. I had dizziness for the first two days, but have had no other side affects for the month I've been in the drug.

I took Akamin for my acne rocacea and I started to feel
ill a couple of weeks after taking it. I ended up as my doctor thinks is an allergy to it and I am just getting over
erythema nodosum which is the formation of red and painful lumps on my legs. The cure was worse that the condition it was treated for.
