A member asked:
Does doxycycline make you "purge" regarding acne treatment. gets worse before better? or this medication does not do it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doxycycline is standard treatment for acne. You should improve slowly over time. It is not a purge and if you are becoming worse it may not be the right treatment for you. See your doctor as you may require a change. Good Luck
