"been taking doxy for 3 months now. before doxy, i had mild acne on my forehead and some cystic ones that i would get around my period. anyway, so i&#039;m taking 100mg doxy twice per day + tretinoin + acanya. i don&#039;t have pimples anymore but still have some dark spots. if i should get a pimple it would be a really small one and usually it&#039;s dried out after a day or two.



today i went back to my dermatologist for check up and she put me on doxy again for another 3 months (so six months in total). she said she&#039;s adding another 3 months so that i will be completely breakout free.



only bad side effect i had with doxy is sometimes it makes me throw up."
