"i&#039;ve been dealing with severe to moderate acne for almost 13 years now (i&#039;m currently 23 yrs old). i&#039;ve been waiting for puberty to chill  out and stop breaking me out, but it hasn&#039;t so i decided to see a derm about my options. she prescribed me doxy and it worked fabulously!! i took the first pill that night, went to bed and when i woke up all of my acne was gone!!13 years of horrible acne and over night it was gone! for 3 days i took it 2x a day like i was told, but i decided since it was working so well i only wanted to take it once a day considering doxy is a strong antibiotic and i didnt want my body to get such a strong dose for 2 weeks. as soon as i finsihed the acne came back, with a vengence. i&#039;m going to look into accutane"
