"I’ve been taking Winlevi since January of this years. I’ve been on it for 6 months and I can truthfully say I do not get painful cystic acne anymore. I do get a pimple or two right before my cycle but that’s it. This does dry out your skin so it’s important to paid with a heavy moisturizer. Other than that this drug works wonders. I will continue to use."

"Effective, but I'm trying to figure out if it is the cause of diarrhea. My history includes c.Diff caused by clindamycin, so I research antibiotics before taking them. Drugs.com is the only site whose list of Winlevi side effects includes diarrhea, so I'd welcome feedback from anyone with a similar experience. I'm wondering if some food, drink, drug, or vitamin taken in conjunction with Winlevi can cause diarrhea."

"I am 40 years old and have had cystic, hormonal acne on my chin for the past few years. My dermatologist prescribed Winlevi as I did not want to take an oral medication. Within a few days, the cystic acne began to clear up. I have been using Winlevi for one month and I have had no new breakouts, my chin is completely clear and I can even see that the pores on my chin are clearing up. My skin hasn't looked this good in years and I am so grateful for Winlevi."
