Reduced acne on my back reasonably well, but works better in combination with topical treatments such as Dual and Isotretenoin. Mild stomach upset experienced. Avoid all alcohol and best taken first thing in the morning.

I've been taking this medication for 1 and 1/2 months now, so far I notice a change in my skin for the better. But from time to time I get dizzy and rapid hearbest specially within the 2 hours of taking it. I'm going back to my Dermatologist in 2 weeks and inform her of the rapid heartbeat at night.

Took the medication for 9 months while deployed to Afghanistan. Since starting I have had the worst and most vivid nightmares of my life. During one such nightmare attacked someone in the room with me. I have also been diagnosed with depression, a possible result from this medication. Despite being off it for several months the problems still persist.

Prescribed for military deployment to Afghanistan. No problems for 1st month (once per week). After one month--amazing "hi-def" dreams. Next came most HORRIFIC dreams screaming to awakening! Scared hell out of room-mate! Changed to doxicylene ASAP! Don't take this shit! YIKES!!!!
