Doxycycline
acne
"I was on 50mg of doxocycline as well as using tretanoin cream for about 15 days and it made my acne worse, and for about a week my skin was very dry. I went back to the doctors and have stopped using the cream now I am on an 100mg dose of doxocycline and have been for about 2 weeks and haven't seen any improvement. But I'll update soon. I'm 18 and am prone to acne because of my dads genes. It covers most of my right cheek and chin, and a few spots here and there on the rest of my face but it had gotten worse on my forehead and other cheek but I'm not sure if that was from the medication or if that was going to happen regardless. I have tried a lot of different ways to clear my skin, antibacterial washes and medicated washes, hope this works"
