For Bacterial Skin Infection "This medication is no joke! Can't hardly eat nor enjoy anything. I'm lucky to eat one cracker and drink water, and even then, I never know if I will be able to hold it down. Vomiting and nausea are expected, but body aches, flu symptoms, sore throat, migraine headaches, and not getting a lot of sleep are not comfortable. Asked my doctor if she can switch me off this medication, but he was firm and stated I have to take it all. I'm on my second week and won't be done until my third week. It's brutal and hard to deal with. I don't see any results nor improvement for my condition either."

For Acne "I started taking this medicine about 3 months ago once a day. I’ve always taken it after food and with a full cup of water. It started to make me nauseous until I got so sick I was puking and on the toilet for two days (I haven’t ever been so sick for so long). My stomach is still messed up, and I haven’t taken it for about a week. And it didn’t get rid of my acne."

For Bacterial Skin Infection "DO NOT TAKE THIS MEDICINE! It’s horrible. I have been off of it almost 48 hours, and I’m still puking and can’t hold any food down. My body is so weak, and it’s giving me panic attacks!"

For Upper Respiratory Tract Infection "This caused bad vomiting, the last time I vomited like this: 1968, Hong Kong flu. There's better treatment for UTIs."
