solodyn

Avatar n tn I'm wondering if there's any research supporting a link between solodyn and eye floaters. I was on Solodyn for about 2 months and my vision deteriorated over the same period of time. I have pretty severe floaters that distract me in reading and computer use. Previously a little farsighted but not requiring glasses. Optometrist says the back of my eye looks like "a spiderweb." No retinal detachment, glaucoma, cataracts, etc.
Avatar n tn no results Abt two months ago, I was prescribed Solodyn, I use neutrogena creamy wash, Retin-A and some hydroquinone for the dark spots. The solodyn make me break out in a HEAP of HIVES !! so I stopped taking it about 3 weeks ago and now I have been prescribe Bactrim? It seems that antibiotics are the ONLY thing that cure my acne since I have really oily skin. The topicals dry it out in the beginning, and I only apply a little, but then my sebaceous glands quickly make up for the lack of oil.
Avatar m tn I just found out that I am 6-7 weeks pregnant and I took Solodyn 115mg for the first month of my pregnancy! I am really scared that this might have harmed my baby. All the websites say to avoid becoming pregnant while taking Solodyn because it has been shown to cause harm to the human fetus. Has anyone been in this situation?
Avatar f tn I have had multiple bumps on my groin for years now. I'm worried I might have Hidradenitis Suppurativa but I'm not sure. I'm only 16 and haven't been to a doctor because I don't know what to say and I would be devastated if I got diagnosed with HS seeing as it gets WORSE. This is what one of the bumps looks like: http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa62/sininenenkeli/hurt017.jpg http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa62/sininenenkeli/hurt025.
1041243 tn?1375230520 I would like to suggest a category, possibly under dermatology, for Hidradenitis Suppurativa (also known as H.S.,, Verneuil's disease, etc). This is a skin disease that is painful an can be debilitating, affecting up to 4% of the population. It causes painful abscesses/cysts/boils in the underarm, breast, buttocks, and groin areas. It is often misdiagnosed and often goes undiagnosed for years (for example, I've had it for 14 years and was just formally diagnosed 2 years ago).
Avatar n tn I am in stage 3 hidradenitis and I was approved the first time I tried for SS benefits, as well as private disability insurance. The main key that I have found is documentation. Even when I didn't need a boil lanced by the doctor, I went in and had them chart it, sometimes take pictures, etc. It helped a lot.
1422823 tn?1287679280 Just out of curiosity, does anyone here suffer from hidradenitis? I have heard that some people with Chiari also suffer from certain skin disorders and just wondering if anyone else has this?
Avatar n tn The ideal treatment of hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) should provide a high likelihood of cure with a low recurrence rate, as well as minimal inconvenience and loss of work time. Medical management is recommended in early stages, whereas surgery should be performed as early as possible after the formation of abscesses, fistulas, scars, and sinus tracts (see Surgical Care).
Avatar m tn I saw a dermatologist and he said that it was folliculitis and prescribed me solodyn (minocyciline). The sores on my lips usually last a week, but I usually pop them and they are sore, but no blood or pus comes out. They heal and have dissapeared, but for a little redness that you can't really see unless you look closely in the mirror. Is there still a chance that this is herpes?
1649405 tn?1366257026 I have had POTS for many years and also Hidradenitis Suppurativa for about 12 years. I am just wondering if anyone else that has any form of Dysautonomia has HS also. Both are so frustrating(to say the least). I can't help but to think that they have to be related in some way. Both my POTS and HS are believed to be genetic. Any help or comments would be GREATLY appreciated.
Avatar f tn If someone had hiv would it take two years or could it have been a reaction to the medication solodyn which does have a side effect of joint pain. I have been tested several times since that encounter and my hiv test even up to febuary when I got sick was negative and the three previous tests before that were negative.
Avatar m tn Google Hidradenitis Suppurativa. It's a disease of the hair follicles. https://www.hs-foundation.org/what-is-hs/ https://www.hs-institute.com/what-is-hs See a dermatologist for a diagnosis if you think this is what you have, but it's not that well-known, so a lot of doctors aren't that familiar with it.
Avatar m tn Hello, Your symptoms are suggestive of hidradenitis supprativa. Hidradenitis suppurativa is a skin disease that affects areas bearing apocrine sweat glands and hair follicles; such as the underarms, groin and buttocks. Apply warm compresses on the lumps and keep the area clean. Topical antiseptic treatment and topical antibiotics such as mupirocin or neomycin containing ointment is very useful.

Avatar f tn Talk to your doctor about hidradenitis suppurativa. Would guess this is what is going on. While a big old pain, it's not a dangerous condition.

1094941 tn?1264559085 Hi. I went to the dermatologist and he said it was Perioral Dermatitis. I mentioned to him I also had a rash on my hand and some itching on my legs but he didin't say anything about that. He prescribed Solodyn and the Duac gel. I took the Solodyn for a week and had extreme itching so I called the office and was told to stop that med. The duac gel seems to be working well. Now, my problem is that I still have extreme itching on my neck and legs. My neck is awful!
Avatar n tn Please talk to your doctor about Hidradenitis Suppurativa. Better yet, do a little research on it first...google it and find out what is is about. It is often misdiagnosed, sometimes for 15 or 20 years. there is no known cause, and no known cure. It is not a common disease and doctors sometimes don't even think about it. If your GP isn't sure...go to a dermatologist. Anyone with 3 or more "boils" a year...
Avatar m tn In February, I got retested again and it came back negative for both. I went to a dermatologist and he prescribed me solodyn (minocycline) for folliculitis and said that most likely that is what it is. Recently I experienced the same bumps on the same side of my lower lip where my lip meets my skin. I went to get it tested today and the doctor did not test for herpes, but said that it most likely was herpes.
Avatar m tn Hello, One possibility for such bumps is of hidradenitis suppurativa.

Apply warm compresses on the lumps and keep the area clean. Topical antiseptic treatment and topical antibiotics such as mupirocin or neomycin containing ointment is very useful.
Avatar n tn Hidradenitis is a good suggestion for the groin, but not so good for lesions on the lower abdomen. But MLWTR is correct that this is something to ask your doctor about.
Avatar n tn I know this is bad, but I self prescribed some meds - my kid had it for acne. Solodyn = Minocycline. Been taking it about 3 days. Will that help. Internet said it was good for UTI and clamidia.
