lots of fruits and vegetables. drink a quart of water before meals. peanut butter and cheese used to make me breakout almost instantly too much fat in general always gave me issues. exercise and sweating will also help. if you have liquidy diarheah like shits you are eating too much fat.

Solodyn (another antibiotic) is way better than doxy. The reason is because doxy penetrates the water in your cells, whereas Solodyn penetrates the oil in your cells.
Solodyn has just recently gone generic too, so OP is in luck.

LOL what are you talking about, you're either going to need to rephrase that in a more scientific manner or provide some scientific article that explains what you're talking about.

When I was younger it was hard. My face was always oily. I washed it. Took care of it. But an hour later it was like a oil spill again.
I got a bit older and it went away. I no longer had cysts. Everyone has something that makes them self conscience I think. Some people are fat for example. As a dude who can't really get fat. I have all kinds of people putting me down for it. I don't even give a fuck. Its projection of themselves.
I went on doxycycline for awhile. It helped the most. They nearly went 100% away. Downside it made me lose weight that I can't easily get back because it made me not hungry. My teeth also ended up fine. Despite what you hear. I was on it for 3 months. It kind of sucked though. I was tired and felt not so good. Although in the end I realized that I had a testicle infection as well that it cured. Epididymitus im sure.
They have come back just not as bad. My skin mantle changed because of the doxy. It's oil is more or less normal. Give doxy a try. It's symptoms were not that bad.
One thing that helps is hydration. Drink green tea. It will help. Take vitamins, and exercise. It probably won't cure you cause if your like me you will always have some.

No it has not, only certain strengths have been generic. Stronger strengths such as the 110mg or 130mg have only recently gone generic. Only the 90mg's have been generic for a while.
You have to understand that Solodyn (the brand) is extended-release, so hence the branding label. 1 pill is supposed to be far more effective for a single day if it's XR rather than IR.

I'm only repeating what my dermatologist said. It's not like she went to medical school or anything or is a specialist in acne medications or anything.

what does solodyn achieve and what are the side effects?
For the 3rd or so time I have tried doxy.
Mmmmmm I love a good fig we actually have a fig tree but my climate may only get 1 or 2 figs that fully ripen.
I can get dried figs though but they are hella expensive.
Cheers!

I remember when I was in highschool I really wanted acne because even at 20 my face still looks so childish and boyish and acne makes you seem mature and grown up

Im gonna tell you now exactly how to get your skin as good as it can be, try it or ignore it your choice but its the truth:
Step 1: Chuck out any products, washes or chemicals Step 2: Only wash your face gently with water, at max once per day Step 3: Never touch your face, never pick or squeeze spots; If they bad go to a doctor for removal of deep ones Step 4: Drink lots of fresh water everyday, before bed and in morning
Your welcome

^^ yes. Theres always a mental issue behind this. That they havn't accepted their appearance yet.
All shapes and sizes Vincent. We don't have much choice in how we look in terms of the body. Its a bad path to think about changing it if you really can't. As far as spots just do what I said and thats it ^

You might also consider getting a reverse osmosis filter. There's alot of shit in tap water that can cause acne. Fluoride, pharmaceuticals, etc
Try to combine food properly. NEVER mix fruit and cooked food. Never eat fruit after cooked food within an hour or so or vice verse (basically rawtil4)
Get a good amount of sun daily( ideally nude if possible that day). or use a tanning bed. Bed no more than 5 minutes. Outside you can do up to an hour(FULL on SUN) No sunscreen. Body NEEDS vitamin d from the sun(supplements dont really cut it), and the sun is great for clearing up acne. Don't get burned. At that point you're doing damage
The sun is also sort of a disinfectant for skin.
Drink TONS of water as other have said. Eat organic when possible.
Get off all meds .
Good luck
HCLFV is your best option at this point
EDIT: What kind of laundry detergent are you using? You should get rid of all chemical laundry detergent and look for natural alternatives. I've heard tons of stories of acne clearing up when getting rid of chemical cleaners in the wash AND around the house.
I personally use vinegar and baking soda for all my cleaning needs. Dishes, laundry, house, etc

wise words but im not suffering
i wanted acne when i was like 14 because everyone in my class had it and i felt left out without it
luckily/unluckily i never got it
i have 0 problems with my appearance, i just found it funny how i actually desired to have acne at one point in my life

I would have never thought bout the cleaner. Better check the spot on that one.
The water where I live is said to be quite clean, No fluoride and fuck all trace chemicals. I have had my chem teacher prove that too me aswell.

One other thing i forgot to mention is SLEEP. You get an HGH release sometime between 10pm and 12am.
If you are staying up late you are screwing up your adrenals and missing most of a natural HGH release. Effects alot of hormones...could cause acne.
In nature we'd go to bed when the sun goes down. Go to bed early for optimal health
