Doxy 100 for Acne Reviews

"I was a 48 y/o female with nodular acne. My pimples were painful, humiliating, embarrassing, and just plain ugly. I had used every over-the-counter treatment there was. Once I was diagnosed with nodular acne (severe acne), my dermatologist prescribed Doxy 150 mg. By using coupons, it is affordable. I am 52 now, and I continue to use Doxy 50 a day at this time. My thought is a clear face is priceless. No more pockets of pus or inflammation on my face."


"My doctor prescribed Doxy for me and put me on 100 mg twice a day for 4 months. So far, it's 2 months, and already there is a very big improvement in that I am confident with my face, and everyone is commenting on how flawless my skin is."


"This medicine is great. I have been using it for 2 months, and my face is pretty much cleared. I don't have to worry about having extremely oily skin anymore either. I have experienced nausea and vomited once, but that can be avoided if you take it immediately after a meal."


"Doxy is amazing. If you stick to it for a while you will see results like you've never dreamed of. My skin looks GREAT and people compliment it all of the time. I hope it stays like this when I finish the last pill in 3 days. I took 100mg 2x a day for 3 months. Only drawback is the horrible nausea and vomiting I experienced when I didn't take it after or with a meal."


"Well i was 15 when i started getting acne n it kept on getting worse! After 4 Years to that my dermatologist suggested me Doxybact 100 that i cud take hardly for a week bc i got a severe form of allergic reaction so i had to stop takin it. But now after 4 years to even that i started takin it again n it did wonders! It just cleared my skin well!! I m v happy with the results bc no cream gel facewash had ever helped me this way! The only reason i hav rated this 7 is that it works only if i am takin it continuously! If i stop takin it my acne come back even within 20 days! Thats the worst part but otherwise its amazin!!"
