"i had very good results from minocin as far as my acne was concerned. my face started clearing up and was looking almost back to normal. i did experience the dizziness and frequent yeast infections while on this but thought it was worth it.  after about 3 months, i was feeling very bad, my joints all ached so bad i had decreased my activities and almost stopped dancing. my parents were having me worked up for arthritis and i was having blood in my stool suddenly. my mom talked to a doctor at work and found out it was the minocin that was causing all the joint pain and probably a lesion in my bowels. i immediately stopped it and am now back to normal and have bad acne again."
