"i stated getting terrible acne since i stopped taking the pill 6 months ago. my normal cleanser and pimple routine wasn&#039;t working, and mostly made the acne worse. my gp prescribed 50mg of doxycycline once daily which didn&#039;t seem to work. although the dr told me the acne might get worse before it gets better, i decided to go back and ask for a stronger medication as it got alot worse in the first two weeks of being on 50mg. i was prescribed 100mg once daily instead of going onto another medication. i&#039;m now 2 months in and i&#039;ve started noticing a huge change. i&#039;ve also changed my makeup to mineral which has helped alot! don&#039;t forget that doxy makes your skin worse before it gets better but don&#039;t give up! it works!!"
