Minocycline?

[WannaImpress]

Guys just wanted to get your opinions on this acne medication. I have a few refills left from my earlier years, but wanted to see what your opinions are on taking them while on a Cyp./EQ/Winny/Fina cycle! Shit...... by the way I just found out that it can cause liver failure, tooth discolouration, autoimmune hepatitis and lupus! Ain't that about a bitch!!!

I prefer a topical antibiotic like Cleocin..less liver toxicity and works quickly and effectively. If you need Cleocin, drop me an email.

I tried minocyclin 4 years ago. It causes some very severe joint pains. I could not walk, never mind train my legs. However, it did work and acne cleared for a while. It come back afetr several months. This is due to the acne causing bacteria developing resistance against the medication. At this point doc will give you another antibiotic which will again cause sides, clear acne & return of acne.

END POINT: USE ACCUTANE

BB, yeah I wish I could get ahold of some accutane through my dermatologist but he says that I don't have severe acne so pretty much he doesn't want to prescribe it to me!

hey bro, minocycline is an antibiotic mfd. by esi-lederle. a friend of mine at work takes it for a mild case of rosacea that flares up once in a while, but she has to take the capsules once ed. these are 100 mg caps she takes. she complains of upset stomach and abdominal cramping most of all.( i know this because i called and asked her).


hope this helps.
