Length Of Acne Treatment With Acticlate 150 Mg (Top voted first)

Updated

My dermatologist prescribed acticlate 150 mg once daily for treatment of my acne. I am taking this medication for two months already. The medication seems working great but I am wondering how long should I take it> I still have one more refill of 30 tablets. How long is safe to take this medication? My doctor gave me three refills.

Hello, Detelina! How are you? What a beautiful name!

According to the Aqua Pharmaceuticals website, Acticlate contains the active ingredient Doxycycline, which is very commonly used to treat acne that is bacterial in origin. Typical side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

The length of treatment may vary, depending on how well it works for you. You may only need to take it for 3 months, or you may need to be on it for a longer period of time.

When do you see your doctor, again?
