"i started taking this medication about a year ago. to be honest the first 2 months were okay no intense breakouts. but once months 3-4 hit, i experienced the worst breakout of my life!! painful cysts on my cheeks and around my mouth. i made it through that rough patch and now my skin is incredible. minor small pimples here and there but my skin is 100% better than what it was before. the down side is that i have gained about 10 pounds around my hips and lower stomach"
