Used Doxycycline? Rate It:
Cons:
Did not get rid of red marks. Peeling, sun sensitivity, have to plan meals carefully-no dairy within 2-3 hours of taking it, must sit up for 30 minutes.
Pros:
Had perfectly clear skin the whole time on the Doxy, minus the first 2 initial months.
Cons:
Pretty bad breakouts the first month. Second month spent waiting for marks to fade. SOO sick if taken without food.
Pros:
helped clear up my back. seems to help with cysts
Cons:
My neck is still really broken out. no help with all the little bumbs covering my face. redness from being in sunlight.
Pros:
very affordable, lesser tendency of developing resistance, very effective in preventing cysts, lesser side effects ( diarrhea )
Cons:
possible renal or hepatic damage in the future
Pros:
Works quickly - it's doing a great job in clearing up the acne on my back - upper shoulders and face
Cons:
Makes you sensitive to sunlight - and you MUST eat food before you take this or you will probably start to vomit.. it is explained on the container
Pros:
Cheap, reduces size and duration of nodular acne, relatively quick acting.
Cons:
Effects don't last very long after ceasing treatment.
Pros:
i've seen a great significant difference in size and redness of my acne while using doxy, differen, and duac together. its been almost a month and i'm loving the results. i had moderate to severe acne but it is working VERY EFFECTIVELY!
Cons:
i tend to get a little nauseated a little after taking the pill prior to eating 2 hours before hand.
Pros:
I have been on this for 6 months, and I'd say this has improved my complextion by 95%!!! I have noticed a HUGE difference in the number and size of my zits. I no longer worry about a huge breakout before "my time of the month"!!
Cons:
A little worried about the long term affects of this pill. Not sure that its safe to be on an antibiotic for a long period of time. Soon I hope to start a family, and my doctor informed me this shouldn't be taken while pregnant.
Pros:
It took almost 3 weeks, but I'm getting relief!
Cons:
It makes me feel like I"m going to throw up for about a half hour after I take it.
Pros:
Working great!!! No new break outs since ive started the medication.
Cons:
Have to take it with food or else i get an upset stomach
Pros:
Reduced new acne from forming in combination with Clean & Clear Persa Gel (10% benzoyl peroxide) and Clindamycin solution.
