Ciaran 0 Posted February 13, 2006 hey everyone, great site and regime i must say. But just needed some advice on what to do.. i've been on and off tetracycline and Benzoyl Peroxide for almost 4 years now.(I am 16) They have shown slight improvements on acne on face and back but nothing too impressive considering the time i've used them. The doctor finally makes a "clever" decision that the drug isn't working for me.. (well done to him) so i get pescribed euthramysin and to continue with Benzoyl Peroxide ( apparantly a more effective type of medication for acne problems) i have been on this a week now and started to suffer many side affects from it, but the problem is it is actually showing effect on my acne on my face.. i am suffering stomach pains, diahrohea and feeling dizzy at times. Also finally the doctor decides to transfer me to the local Deremetology.... which tonight i found out the nearst appointment is mid April ( stupid NHS) so.. what do i do? carry on and suffer the side affects because the pills are making affect? or do i go back to my doctor.. Many thanks for any replies.. Ciaran. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
