Pros:

No side effects. No interactions with other meds that i take and most other meds in general that my pharmicisy said. But always double check on your own

Cons:

It does help to a degree. I've taken it for almost 3 months there has been improvement but my back is not the smooth acne free like most other guys. There are still some stubborn acne that just wont go away as of yet.

If you have insurance with a minimal co pay go for it there are very few side effects plus they have these cards that you give to your pharmacist and they greatly reduce if not eliminate the co pay. I just take it in the a.m. My dermatologist says its improved which it has. But he is more optomistic than i am. And he gave me 6 refills even though its not recommended for more than 3 months but in many cases the Dr can increase the recomended dosage bases on your particular condition. Eeeeeeeeeeeeh if your Dem thinks its what you need go for it. There is also a generic version "Minocycline" Which is much more affordable. And solodyn is really and extended release for Minocycline. Talk to your Dem about that. Its the same thing you may just hace to take it like twice aday thats all.

Works pretty good, still get a few pimples. Been using it 3 months.

Cons:

Go off of it and my skin goes nuts again.

Very expensive, but I think its worth it. With discount card first 3 months were $10, then jumped to $150.
