DO NOT go out in sun for long periods of time while taking this medicine--causes MAJOR SUNBURN!

Mild improvement - I would recommend going on the Regimen at the same time as taking these tablets (my doctor also suggested Benzoyl Peroxide use...)

Antibiotics were a cruel joke for me. My skin got worse while on tetracycline.
