User Reviews for Minocycline

minocycline: Whenever I have a flare-up I take 100 mg twice a day and it quickly resolves the problem and my skin looks wonderful. I take a lot a other medications for allergies and high blood pressure and this has never interfered with any of them.

Minocin (minocycline): This medication works well for me. It took a very long time before I was finally diagnosed with Rosacea. I kept hoping I would just out grow adolescent acne even all the way into my late twenties. The only side effect I have encountered is yeast infections. I started taking acidophillus which helps but am now going to consult a nutritionist to see if they can help diet wise. The benefits of the drug outway the side effect but I hope to find a happy balance.

Minocin (minocycline): I started taking this and after a few weeks my Rosacea was clearer but had to stop because of UNBEARABLE joint pain. Doctor put me on a lower dose of doxycycline and so far so good.

Solodyn (minocycline): I was given Solodyn for 3 months as part of a study. Within 3 days I saw a big difference. I was mainly looking to get rid of the red hue on my face since birth. I soon discovered that I had inflammation of my facial skin that was soon gone. My facial skin took on a whole new texture and what few tiny pimples I would get no longer existed. I have been without for 2 months now and my face has returned to it's original state. The rosacea on my collar bone/upper chest has not returned. I would recommend this to anyone who asked. Hoping to start doxycycline soon and get similar results.

minocycline: I have had Rosacea since I was 18. I am now 48, I have tried a few different medicines. This is the first that has improved my skin to the condition it was in before Rosacea. I have not had any side effects from this drug. I give it a 10.

minocycline: I had a severe allergic reaction after using it for 2 weeks. I first noticed my lips swelling and then I broke out in big welts. I also had the worst chocking feeling ever. The itching was unreal. I went back to the Doctor and she put me on Prednisone yesterday. The itching has gotten worse. I am thinking that I may be having an allergic reaction to this also. I will be back at the Dr.'s office as soon as she opens.

minocycline: I had rosacea (occasional red bumps and redness) on my face (only) for several years. I finally saw a dermatologist, who prescribed minocycline plus a topical application, Clarifoam EF. Since I began treatment seven weeks ago, my skin improved noticeably with the first ten days and has not shown return of the symptoms. I'm waiting to see if it does return when I am completely off the minocycline. A possible side benefit (or coincident), I had a thickening in my throat and chronic cough when lying down or when breathing deeply or laughing. That also was gone within the first two weeks.

minocycline: Whenever I try come off this medicine my Rosacea flares up within 10 days to 2 weeks. I am currently attempting to wean the dosage down to 3 times per week, so far it is working.

minocycline: My doctor said I had the worst case of Rosacea he had ever seen. He prescribed a couple of topicals and this medicine. This pill really worked for me. If I have a flare up, I take a couple and it goes away.

Minocin (minocycline): Cleared up my nose in 3 days, but have headache, little dizzy, foggy head.

Solodyn (minocycline): Great product with 45mg once per day.
