  • @gianina17 I was only on it for a month. Honestly it didn't help all that much. But after that I went on doxycycline, which worked A LOT better. Ultimately, I still had acne so I decided to go on accutane...I'm on my third month of it and I'm loving it, my skin looks great!

  • @coldtink93 has your skin improved with the Tetracycline?

  • I really hate the side effects to minocycline. It works but I just can't take the side effects. I felt tired for no reason. So i stopped taking it so I could get my health back on track. I wish they prescribe you the pill they would tell you possible side effects to it so you know.

  • Just started tetracycline...fingers crossed

  • @jayou87 it works its very effective but i used minocycline for 2 years it did work its very perfect like when i stoped using it u coud se acnees came back and then when i use it back i took 2 each day or every 2 days it goes away in about 1 week or less but the problem is that i think it does have side effects now i cant handle my stress annymore i just sweat under my arms for no reason...deodorant and all those chit dosnt work its really iunno why i just sweat for nothing maybe because of that

  • @XlivinghouseX does minocycline work? i just started 3 days ago and i think its already working!?

  • @alwehead bro use minocycline trust me it will work...

  • @texasrespect no it dosent bro its very effective been 2 years i been taking it

  • what are the side effects of tetracycline on the body?
