I had taken this once before and took for granted its benefits. I stopped taking it for some odd reason and started, slowly but surely, to break out again. So now, about six months after I stopped taking it, I am back on it (I am trying two pills a day instead of one now) and I notice a big difference. I haven't had any cysts and the redness is totally gone in my face. Yes, I still have my normal breakouts but the cysts are gone. I would highly recommend nicomide. And there's a rebate!
Pros
Gets rid of redness, seems to help a lot with cysts
Cons
[not submitted]
for a few weeks
$ 38
I recommend using this treatment.

I been on nicomide pills for a few days and it seems to clear up my skin. I used to take antibiotics but since that has many side affects my derm told me to stop taking it. Nicomide is more natural and contains vitamins so it's kind of like a natural way to heal the acne.
Pros
good
Cons
none
for about a week
$ 30

I've been using niacinamide for a month, and I am amazed. My skin is extremely sensitive - I break out or get flakey skin from nearly any OTC product. In fact, the only thing I can use on my skin is apple cider vinegar, diluted to about 20:1. Then I found some references to niacinamide on [link removed], and figured I'd try it (I've tried nearly everything else). I haven't had a break-out in 2 weeks, and my skin is looking more 'soothed' and mono-toned (I had patches of reddish and yellowish skin).
The product I'm using is called 'metazene' from LifeLink. It uses aloe vera as the base, which may explain why it is soothing.
I also notice a correlation between acne and sugar (most fruit is ok), but that is for another topic :).
Pros
soothing, evens skin tone, reduces (eliminates?) outbreaks, great for sensitive skin
Cons
none
for about a month
$ 15
I recommend using this treatment.
