"when i first started on minocycline (akamin 50) it worked perfectly and cleared my severe cystic acne in weeks. but after being on it for 4 months i started getting side effects. nausea which would make me gag and almost vomit, even from sipping on water. vomiting, which got more severe as i stayed on the medication, i would vomit up to 3 times a week, and would randomly wake up in the middle of the night and instantly vomit. severe diarrhea, which i would get every day. my skin started to fall off in large chunks, but only on the bottom of my feet. i started this medication when i was 16 (in october 2015) started getting side effects in february 2016, 4 months after starting it, and then finally stopped taking it when i was 18 (march 2017)"
