Minocycline for Bacterial Infection Reviews
"Multiple severe side effects, including severe fatigue, diarrhea, muscle pain, confusion and anxiety. Do your research! This is a dangerous drug. Took only four doses before I ended up in the ER. I am still recovering four days later and don't know how long it will take for a full recovery. Use only as a last resort, e.g., NOTHING else will work and you're close to death. ....and even then think twice. Not kidding. ...side effects are absolutely terrible."
"I was advised minocycline 100mg a day for a month for scalp folliculitis. In a week its shows improvement and I was happy but in second week I developed flu like symptoms and then one night hive like swelling spread all over my body and spent a night in emergency where I was told that stop taking minocycline as it was very itchy and burning sensation and pain and I was given some shots of anti allergic. I was prescribed anti allergic medicine for a month now. This medicine is horrible as I am suffering from urticaria due to this medicine"
"So not take. This keep in the restroom for hours. Plus had to changed the sheets."
