It is naive for doctors to offer this, many have stopped due to ongoing research of side effects.
Please read.
Pros:
- Clears acne
- No inital breakout

Cons:
- Typical side effects of anti-biotic!

Pros:
Free on NHS prescription, completely cleared up my acne and kept my face clear for several weeks. Not many side effects just occasional stomach aches when taking pills.
Cons:
Took a few weeks to start working and I had an initial break out for a few days at the start of the course. Have to take it on an empty stomach and it's annoying to plan your whole day around it.
Pros:
Cleared up my acne after about 5 weeks, zone by zone.
Cons:
I don't count the "having to plan your meals" as a con, because everybody with acne knows that this is a very small price to pay for something that helps.
However - I think I'm developing a yeast infection - my testicles have become red and itchy. Not good.
Pros:
Clears skin initially. Worked wonders on my rosacea.
Cons:
When you stop it, the misery is back
Made me break out tremendously on my back, something i still suffer with several years later
Antibiotics shouldn´t be taken lightly
