"i&#039;ve had horrible acne, including a ton of cystic pimples all on my cheeks and a few on my forehead. i also have chest acne and back acne. i started taking doxycycline hyclate about 2 months ago and at first i felt like giving up and stop taking it. i didn&#039;t know the pill made you feel nauseous and i took it with a full glass of water and felt sick. a friend of mine told me she was taking the same pill and her doctor said if it makes you feel sick take food with it. so i did and i still take it today along with erythromycin and benzoyl peroxide. my skin has cleared up so much and i&#039;m not constantly breaking out anymore. my skin isn&#039;t perfect but it is much better and it is slowly getting better. i will continue to take this antibiotic, i love it."
