I have been having immune system problems this past year. Which has caused me to be stressed and out of nowhere I developed cystic acne. It has not gone away for 10 months. Finally my doctor prescribed me doxycycline hyclate 100mg... I'm afraid to take it. I'm afraid of the side effects. Has anyone taken this before? What was your experience?

Hi, I was on doxycycline 100mg for eight months last year due to immune system problems which also included terrible boil type lesions which would take 6 months minimum to go through their cycle. Apart from the odd headache the doxy was trouble free. Just wish I could be on it permanently. Now I use octenisan to wash with and avoid all dairy, all meat and gluten as they will start another boil type acne lesion off again. Liverpool tropical diseases hospital did a load of tests only to come up with a possible mrsa type of infection. But then my doctors are absolutely useless.

Thank you! Okay I was nervous about taking it, and especially nervous that I would start to reject antibiotics. I hope you are getting better!

"I have been taking Doxy for almost two months now and it worked so well for my acne. After 1 week of using it, my acne was gone completely. Always take it after a meal and please take probiotics while you're taking it otherwise your digestive system will get upset. This goes for any type of antibiotics ever.

My insurance doesn't cover it so i got them from bit.ly/2MnCG0f :) I've used 10 % coupon code, which was "LOYAL10"
