Hello guys!
I started taking tetracycline back in december and dose was pretty high. I've been taking it since then, but my dermatologist lowered the dose every month and now I'm taking one pill once in every four day. I've heard that in many cases of antibiotic therapy acne comes back after you stop taking them. I wanted to know if I'm taking pretty low dose and my acne is still managable with it, will it still come back after I stop taking meds.

Same thought, acne will be back ina week or so after stopping antibiotic, at least on my case.
