I think you rather suffer with the acne then live with anxiety and a mental illness.

BE WARNED!

Google doxycycline and panic attacks and you will find a connection!

I was a healthy guy now i have to take antidepressants! it totally messed me up in 16 days of using 100mg a night.

I took it for a couple of days, and it seemed to help my skin. But when I took it in the morning, I felt so awful that I would have to go attempt to vomit with nothing coming up. It may have been because I couldn't eat when I took it though. If you can tolerate it, give it a go.

I went to the derm and they prescribed 150 mg tab everyday. Its been over a month and i see no results. my skin isnt that bad, but it could be clearer. i read reviews expecting this to work but, it didnt.

I wish I'd gotten onto this sooner! I have suffered through moderately severe acne for about 7 years and although it wasn't as bad as it used to be, it was still definitely there and not going away. My doctor put me onto this and within the first few days I was noticing a difference (he also diagnosed me with rosacea and gave me hydrocortisone acetate cream which has completely cleared up the vivid redness all over my face!).

The only bad point about this in my opinion is that it is giving me big pimples under my jaw. Sure, I'd rather they weren't there, but I'd rather have them than pimples all over my face, so it seems like a small price to pay.

I am still getting the occasional pimple around my period (nothing will COMPLETELY clear up your acne, especially if it's hormonal), but overall my face has never been this clear since before I got acne when I was about 12!

I would definitely recommend this to anyone - it has really helped a lot.

Doctor put me on this last year, did nothing much for a month... then bam! My skin just got better and better, it would heal from pimples super fast and my skin had never been as good. Had no probs with nausea as I took with food and sat upright after taking the pills. I'm trying the pill now instead as a more long term solution, hopefully it works as well!

I was prescribed this encapsulated oral drug a couple of months ago and I have seen minor/moderate improvements. If you have very oily skin like myself then you will be quite satisfied with the results. As I've said this is not a miracle worker like everything you'll have to patient and wait out until you start to see its effects and even after taking the drug for as long as I have unless you're very lucky your skin probably won't fully be rid of acne, spots or blemishes.

I was prescribed doxy about two months before my wedding because I had a couple of breakouts on my forehead and around my hairline. Once on doxy and an acne cream I began to see immediate improvement. The doxy is supposed to flush out all of your pores so that is why it will seem worse at first. To speed this process up I just dabbed some benzoyl peroxide-based acne cream on the breakout area and it cleared in about a day or two! I recommend you start the treatment on a Wednesday or Thursday so you have the weekend to allow your skin to improve...also if you're a woman you can take the whole weekend to go makeup free and allow your skin to breath :)

I flowed everything my doctor said eat a big meal wait 3 hours afertward to take it! I even did the opposite neither work still nausea and vomiting! I can't say if it was effected because I had only taken it for a week.

Been on it for about 5 days. My face is less oily. And my face isnt breaking out as bad.
