doxycycline and minocycline   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #5258 of 5404 |
I have had rosacea for about 5 years...tried antibiotic creams which
helped a little. My PCP prescribed doxycycline...worked better...finall
I was switched to minocycline...It worked well but I had the unusual
side effect of facial, jaw and left arm pain and some tightness in my
chest. I stopped treatment and called my dermatologist,,apparently this
is a rare side effect of minocycline..haven't had any more symptoms
since I quit treatment...guess I will have to use just creams for now...
