Peggy, Temple, Texas Apr 22nd, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: None Cons: Caused sunburn Bottom Line: I used Tetracycline for four months. When I started using the product I had a few mild pimples. It did somewhat clear them up. When I finally quit taking the antibiotic, my face broke out the worse it has ever been. It has now been six months since I've quit taking Tetracycline and my complextion is still horrible. I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone. Recommended: No Usage: Peggy has used this item for a few months. Price Paid: 50.00 Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

Anonymous, Orange County, California Apr 10th, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: I took tetracycline for 25 days for a CA-MRSA infection on my legs. CA-MRSA is an infectious disease. It is the strong germ in the hospitals that now is out in the community. Cons: I had very minor digestive problems. On discontinuing tetracycline, my lower cheeks and neck have broken out with acne. I don't like getting acne past age 60. Bottom Line: I need to return to doctor to see if tetracycline decolonized the MRSA. Perhaps the acne is a rebound from the tetracycline. Or perhaps the new tree oil shampoo I tried caused the acne or the acne IS MRSA. I would hope for a MRSA vaccine so that people can resume activities where they touch objects that other people touch!

Tetracycline Victim, UK Mar 25th, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Bottom Line: TETRACYCLINE DOES NOT WORK!! I've taken 60 of these pills(2/day). It gave me severe dry skin, a darker, weird complexion on my face, my acne got worse, I got this itchy rash on my eyebrow, I had(still have)digestive problems; gives me gas(burping)and queeziness. I followed the instructions and after 60 pills NOTHING IMPROVED. It's probably snacking on my immune system or something and God knows what else - bottom line: It ISNT HELPING me in any way,shape or form and I'm keen to get off them.

Liv, WA Mar 10th, 2007 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Good for acne loss for a few months. Does not dry skin. Cons: After awhile, the pill stopped working. Bottom Line: After about five months on the pill, it completely stopped working to the conditions I had always taken it under. Yes, there were less pimples than before I took it, but pimples were still there and were not clearing up. I have now switched to minocycline and am much happier. Was this comment helpful?
