Pros:

I was prescribed this medication for 7 days (4 500mg tablets daily) to help an infection from a bug bite. It immediately helped reduce the itching, redness, and swelling of the bite. No side effects experienced.

Cons:

I have never had horrible acne before, very midle. But, after taking this medication for 2 days, I noticed that acne on my face actually worsened during my prescribed time on this medication.

Worked to resolve the issue it was prescribed for me.

Cons:

This product is for bacterial infections, not acne!!!

I can't believe you people are taking this antibiotic for acne! I almost lost both of my hands due to a minor skin infection because there are so many resistant strains of bacteria. Bacterial resistance is a direct result of antibiotics being used for nonbacterial infections. People are having limbs amputated and dying because bacteria don't respond to antibiotics anymore. Please, stop using this product for acne.
