   Doxycycline (Acne board)

23rd March 2004
Quote from ShowGal:
You're right. Avita is just a lower strength of a topical like Retin-A. I don't think there was any initial breakout because I'm positive when I did breakout it was the Clindamycin that caused it.

I've read posts that people have broke out worse after they stop antibiotics. Let's hope that doesn't happen to us!



As long as you do what the doctor says, and you wean yourself off the antibiotics, then you should be fine..Your body should level itself out.
My Aunt was put on Penicillin (like us) 5 years ago for a strange break out she had (she never had acne..and at 35, she looked like she was going through puberty again). She said she was on antibiotics for 6 months... now she is fine. Hasn't had a break out since. Just take good care of your skin... Make sure you keep it clean, and don't take for granted the fact that your acne went away... I know I did...and it got me into trouble...
