I had to stop taking it as I was getting blisters in soft tissue areas. I also have reactions to septrin, and some penicillins

They work really well but follow what it say.s and even when its cloudy put sunscreen on your face etc because you will burn .

Be very careful in sunlight

Take with full glass of water and don’t lie down for a good 2 hrs after taking them x
