| 5 | acne | I was on other meds for other things so not sure what side effects this caused. | I was suffering from cystic acne. It was horrible. This cleared it up in about 2 months. I was maybe getting one small zit when I started my period but other then that all acne was gone. It was so great and a great alternative to more extreme drug like Accutane. I had to stop taking it due to insurance changes and it wasnt covered and my face broke back out again, maybe worse now. That is the bad part I guess. Also, its very expensive without good insurance. I miss it so much! | F | 31 | 1 years 130 1X D | 5/10/2010 | 5 | peri-menopausal acne | None that I can tell. | I was concerned when I developed acne and rosacea for the first time at age 44. After trying a few topical medicines that did not work, solodyn worked beautifully. It is expensive, though. | F | 45 | 120 days 1X D | 5/7/2011 | 3 | cystic acne | Continual yeast infection that does not respond to prescription medicine treatment as the anitbiotic is a long term daily medicine. | Medicine works great for my face. Little harsh on the stomach, but I often have tolerance or nausea with tetracycline products. The recurring yeast infections from the medicine are to the point of unbearable and I may have to discontinue use of the product | F | 40 | 1X D | 12/13/2010 | 1 | acne | fever, swollen joints, joint pain - liver enzymes were 6 times higher than they should have been; stopped the drug 3 months ago and continue with joint pain; lab results confirmed that the symptoms were caused by the drug | TAKE IT OFF THE MARKET AND IF YOU ARE ON IT, GET OFF AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THERE ARE MANY OTHER SAFER ALTERNATIVES TO THIS DRUG!!!!!!!!!!! | F | 18 | 60 days 1X D | 1/27/2011 |
