"Terrible pill. I went on it to clear my acne and help with my extreme period sickness and it made both worse. On top of that, I became extremely lethargic and depressed at times with no reason. I am energetic and a happy person, so this was not a normal tendency for me. My sickness became so severe at times I couldn't even move or sleep. Being in college this is not something I needed to be dealing with. I would become so ill I would consider flushing every single pill down the toilet but continued to give my body a chance to get used to it. I also suffer from cystic acne and this made it even worse even though it's essentially a pill to clear acne.  I stayed on for 3 months hoping for a change and never got it."
