"I have been on Monodox for a little under a month. I take it at night with my dinner, and I use a topical medication before bed. My skin has definitely improved, although not to the point where I feel like I don't need makeup. Any large or cystic pimples are gone, and I haven't gotten any since, but I do have some mild scarring left that hopefully will go away. I am still suffering from small under-the-skin whiteheads that are on my forehead and right cheek, although they have lessened in the number of them, there are still plenty left."

"I took Monodox for 4 days, and I had to stop because it made me so nauseous. One night I actually threw up. I don't know if it was because I take birth control too, but either way, it's not something I would do again."

"This completely made every zit I had disappear... but it makes me feel very sick. Depends on which outweighs the other, but it did work for acne."

"I have acne, and I used this product. Monodox did not clear my acne, however, it did keep it from flaring and becoming worse. I am no longer using this medication, but I guess my experience was okay."

"I started taking Monodox to help with an acne breakout. It worked within 3 days and started drying out my acne, but after 2 weeks I stopped because it was irritating my stomach too much. My face was pretty cleared up but not perfect. I was supposed to be on it for a month. The weirdest thing was the day after I stopped the drug, I began having extreme static electricity in my hair. I still have it, and it has been 4 days. I Googled to see what it could be and found that people who are on Accutane have experienced the same. I hope it goes away, it is very irritating."
