Anyone here ever take Minocycline pills for acne?

The only thing about accutane is that it can damage your liver or so I've read. So alchohol is out.

Accutane works. Just stay out of the sun and don't get pregnant and you'll be fine. Oh, and don't drink either.

I can't believe how many other people have this curse on them. I really feel for you guys, I know how it is. 🙁

I have been taking minocycline for about 1 year now. I love it, but it takes awhile to cure my pimples. 😱

Never taken those pills, but I had some vicious acne starting when I was 16. It was horrible cause I had the cystic type which cause large nodules under the skin. Inflammatory acne sucks ass.

I'm 21 now and I think I'm almost out of the acne stage. Starting 2 years ago, I started to use Proactiv, and that seemed to work pretty well. My mom noticed my skin got clearer 2 or 3 days after first use. I stopped using Proactiv about 3 weeks ago and haven't broken out since. Could be that I just grew out of it. Anyways, many many ppl get acne so don't let it get to you too much. It got to me a lot and I regret having a skin condition get to me so much. Good luck!
