solodyn

Avatar n tn 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 Solodyn is used for 'acne' and is NOT known for weight loss with it.
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.
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 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 n tn I will try it for a bit and see what happens. It is just on my forehead, and it is just the redness with the dark spots underneath that are annoying. Anything you reccomend for the spots. I bought the Proactive dark spot remover, so i was thinking of giving that a shot.
Avatar m tn I'm sorry when i said my IgM test was positive and my IgG test was negative at 5 months I was referring to HSV - 2. I have never tested for Lyme but I cannot figure out what it is thats wrong with me, and I've found that many of my symptoms are related to others who are thinking Lyme as well. Sometimes I have a hard time not believing its not herpes but everyone says to disregard the IgM test and believe my IgG. I have not had any blisters or sores or lesions.
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 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.
Avatar m tn I started getting the yeast infection symptoms a little more than a month ago, but wanted to wait until after I finished the antibiotics to fill my sript for the vaginal cream, Terazol. Once I was done with the Solodyn, I filled it my perscription for the Terazol but also made the appointment to go see my gyn as precaution.
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 f tn Hi, I have post inflammatory hyper pigmentation and I've had it for absolutely ages. After I get rid of a breakout it always leaves a red mark and it doesn't fade away! I've read online that they do fade away but for some reason mine aren't.. I still have some hyper pigmentation from some spots I had about 12-24 months ago.
Avatar f tn I have tried so many different medications and treatments but none seem to work long-term and afternoon 14 years of this I am very frustrated and just don’t know what to do. Many of the medications seem to help for a couple of months but then my acne always flares back up. I have seen many doctors and dermatologists and my last one said that if what he put me on now does not work there is not many options left aside from acutane which I REALLY do not want to do.
Avatar m tn In the last 2 years, I have noticed 2x's I have had some slight irritation underneath my penis. Its only 1 spot on it really doesnt hurt but rather annoying. The site is where the foreskin was removed and like I said, it's only a small "wrinkled" inflammation. Im married and I have had a recent HIV and other STD test ( just not herpes test) due to us doing IVF treatments and we both are neg. I masturbated about 1 week ago and not sure if this caused this.
Avatar f tn Spironolactone. Girls can take it, not boys. That is the key to cystic acne for girls. All hormonal based. I'm 49 and have had them since 17 years old. Still get them, but only once a year. Taking Solodyn 105 mg. with it, too. That's a high dose, but necessary (weigh 135lbs). Spironolactone comes in 25mg pills. One pill a day is not enough! That won't fix anything. I take 100 mg a day to maintain. 50 mg in the morning and 50mg at night.
Avatar f tn I use bare escentuals mineral foundation and Neostrata products (good for exfoliation.) I am going to my doctor in a few weeks and will speak to her about this. I've suffered with this all through my 20's and enoughs enough! Does anyone have any success stories with cystic acne? Any encouragement? I'm trying to be strong and not touch the current cyst - it feels like my face is puffed out to eternity and I'm a walking monster.
Avatar n tn That is an antibidoic, which can effect your cylcle. That explains why your period was off. Remember, antibidoics can cancel out your birthcontrol making you more succeptible to becoming pregnant.
Avatar m tn luckily, my parents took me to the dermatologist for the 1st time yesterday and I was prescribed solodyn (a pill to take) and two different types of creams for my face, one is for night and one is for day, I took my first pill last night and am going to start on my creams tonight too. I am VERY VERY much hoping that this will work...I miss my old skin SOOOOOO much! Before I broke out badly like this I had mild acne...
Avatar m tn Hi. I use the Rosaliac range by La Roche-Posay which is very helpful for Rosacea. Other good brands for redness are Eucerin's Redness Relief range and Clinique's Redness Solutions. A course of oral oxytetracycline will also be beneficial.
Avatar f tn How many months are you? This is my first fullterm pregnancy am going through and am not sure what to expect as I get bigger. Right now am 26 weeks. Kinda nervous.
Avatar n tn Hi. I have been on minocycline since I was 21 (now 29) for acne. I recently went to a new family practice Dr. While I was there he noticed I was on mino and asked how long I'd been taking it. I told him my acne treatment history. He pointed out that my shines were green (look like bruises). He asked how long I'd had those "bruises". I replyed that they'd been there longer then normal. Months maybe.
Avatar n tn m using Benzaderm 10% wash with aloe vera, Tazorac and taking solodyn (minocycline) for acne treatment. Do these products irritate perioral dermatits even more? and what do I do about steroid cream? I can't see my derm until next week and I don't know what to put on my face anymore. Please help!!
