Side effects when you begin taking them
Risk of antibiotic resistance, killing good bacteria in your stomach, blue skin
Scared it will stop working
Cleared moderate to severe acne.
When stop taking, acne comes back worse.
Bad reaction to sun (sun spots on face)
Easily bruised and bruises do not go away.
- Extended Release capsules worked perfectly
(Solodyn)
- Skin cleared up in about a month, lasted throughout treatment
- No side effects while on extended release
- Hard to get Solodyn and the ER tablets, pharmacies would constantly try to put me on the generic tablets.
- Finally had to switch to generic tablets and was made extremely sick, felt spaced out, depersonalized. Stopped taking the generic twice a day immediately after feeling these side effects.
Completely cleared my skin up
Didn't have to change my diet
Didn't dry my skin up
Took about 3 months to see results
Can't be taken for more then 5 years
cleared up skin within first few weeks
no side effects for me
completely clear skin for first few months, then it juz stopped working
stopped working after 4 months =(
its a pill.,so u must be consistent
--kept me relatively clear (and completely eliminated bacne)
--seemed to cut down on inflammation (really helped with pustules/cysts).
--seems to kill my appetite
--seems to absorb a lot better than other antibiotics
--It was all only a temporary reprieve for me--:(
--Still a pain in the ass to take (all antibiotics are, in my opinion).
--They started giving me purple/blushish skin discoloration!
- Cleared up most of my acne in 1 month!
- Takes forever to start working, didn't see the results until the 4th week, but was amazed at how much it cleared up!
- The 2nd day I took it I had really bad side effects (dizziness, light headed, nauseous, etc.) , but I haven't had any further trouble with it!
clears my rosacea acne
taking it every day!
Acne usually gets worse before it gets better because it is working from the inside out.
Basically everything.
It's the first thing to actually work.
Nothing.
Worked great for about 1 year. Awesome results!
Quits working after time.
The right dermatologist can make a big difference to your patient experience and the success of your acne treatment plan. Here are the steps to find a dermatologist who is a good fit:
Only a select few plastic surgeons specialize in acne scar revision surgery. Be certain to find a provider who specializes in acne scar repair and who is passionate and experienced in this area.
Pros:
Cleared me up 1/2 a month
Side effects have gone away
Only have to take once or twice a day
