For Acne "I had horrible acne all over my cheeks. After about 3 months of being on Yaz, Adoxa, and using Epiduo gel, my acne is completely gone. I might get a small pimple every once in a while, but it's hardly noticeable. I have tried everything possible to get rid of acne, but this is the only thing that actually works."

For Acne "This medicine worked really well on clearing up my skin, and it was great because I am allergic to almost all other medicines and creams for acne. The only bad thing is that my doctor stops prescribing it in the summer."

For Acne "I am very much satisfied with this medicine. Adoxa is best for clearing up my acne. The doctor prescribed it to me for a month for a mild acne issue, but if the acne is cystic, it may take a few months to clear all infections. But it really works, I must say. I also use AKMAS GEL at night on acne, it's also good and dries up the acne in one night."

For Acne "Adoxa worked quite well in conjunction with being on Yaz (which makes the Yaz useless as actual birth control). It really cleared up my lifelong battle of breakouts. However, there were some side effects that went along with the long-term use of the antibiotic as strong as doxycycline, like the nausea and vomiting. It was well worth it. I never had a breakout while I was on it for 6 months. After my treatment was completed, the Yaz helped with the maintenance for a while. Every once in a while, I get a small pimple. Nothing compared to the big, icky ones I used to get."

For Acne "I used Adoxa for half a year and experienced no increase or decrease in my acne. There were no side effects either. It wasn't a negative experience, but it didn't help me personally. Hopefully, others have better luck with this product."

For Acne "I am 27 years old and have been taking antibiotics off and on for acne since high school. My most recent prescription was for Adoxa, which effectively cleared up my acne. However, a significant side effect for me was a severe loss of appetite. After just one month on Adoxa, I could barely eat a few bites of food a day. Despite feeling hungry and lethargic, I couldn't bring myself to eat anything. As a result, I lost about 10 lbs, which may sound desirable, but I did not want to lose any more weight. I am now planning to switch back to Doxycycline, and if that doesn't work, I will likely try Accutane."
