"i had very bad cystic acne that was worse during my cycle. i tried oral antibiotics and they were somewhat effective but i still had issues around my cycle and they are not for long term use. so i started this and halfway through the second pack/month my skin was completely smooth and pimple/ whitehead free. i could not be happier.

when i first started taking this i had a very bad breakout, but by the time i hit the third week of the first pack my skin started to improve. my hyper-pigmentation that was left behind is getting better since i am not having any new breakouts.

i was worried that this generic would not be as effective as the name-brand otc-lo, but it is great and free on my insurance!!!"
