"I was prescribed this medication for tinea corporis, and I was taking another brand for 2 months, and it wasn’t working too well. The fungal infection was controlled but not improving or going away, after which the doctor prescribed me the same medication from a different brand, but this time a lesser dosage, and it worked like a charm. But it brought along a lot of side effects - excessive sweating, tiredness, disturbed sleep (can only sleep 4 hours a day), and the WORST side effect (for women) my periods completely stopped, and because of which my hormones went out of whack, and I got insane cystic hormonal acne, which I have never had in my life. Nor have I ever missed a period. I just can’t wait to get it done with because I’m so tired of waking up to 3/4 pimples every single day."
