I started using Doxycycline for 3 months for acne on my face, chest and back in February. The acne was very annoying and I always had to wear closed shirts. The first few days I took the medicine without food, but it quickly changed to eating with food because I vomited. If I ate something first, it went much better and I actually had little trouble. My acne slowly became less but never complet...

I had to stop eating all the foods that contain sugar to stop ...

Two months ago I started taking doxycycline for acne. I noticed a difference after just one and a half weeks and once my treatment had finished (6 weeks), my skin was perfectly smooth all over. Unfortunately it's come back again and I felt so red that I called my dermatologist to see if I could bring my appointment forward.

This time I took a probiotic ...

Folliculitis looks like acne on your scalp, but it's usually caused in older people by a bacterium. I used this medicine for one month in place of Minocycline, which is also moderately effective but for me perhaps slightly more effective. Unfortunately I've had this for 8 years now and it shows no sign of disappearing...!

Few on my upper legs and back. now really bad on both my arms (5 days after the course has finished!). on top of this, really bad wind and very l...

I had a tick infected with the Borrelia bacterium, 5 days after the tick was removed I started on doxycycline 100 mg 2 times a day. I had no side effects from the doxycycline. Whilst I was taking it I drank a lot of water and green tea.
