Anyone know about this drug?

Sup guys , I went to the dermatoligist (sp?) a few days ago about my acne.. My acne isn't real bad but just wanted to see if there were some things i could do for it to clear up. Anyways my Dermatoligist gave me a drug called doroxycylene (I believe that's how you spell it.) I dont have it right in front of me and i'm at work right now so i cant double check the spelling. I guess it's a common prescription for acne. My question is; Does doroxycyclene have estrogen to lower my testosterone levels? If so, is it enough to effect my muscle growth? I'd rather live with a little acne or try clearing up other ways than have a pill I take twice daily slow my progress... Please help. Thanks in advance.

I've used tetracycline and minocine over the years unfortunately. What you're talking about is just another form. All in all they're all very bad. They're especially damaging on the liver, and many other side effects. Please try ProActiv. Nothing works better and it's topical with no side effects. I've even used it while pregnant. This stuff is FUQing amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've had awesome clear skin for 4 years now. Scars are gone, get a few minor blemishes but my skin still looks great. I had very bad acne from 14-27yrs old - even using the prescriptions - and was very insecure and shy because of it. To be honest it was HELL!!! And emotionally and physically painful. Never went swimming, went without coverup, etc. Now it's all good. I'm almost 32 and could pass for 25 cuz this stuff makes your skin so smooth and soft. I could go on and on. It costs about $50US a month. Worth every penny.

i went on roaccutane, which is the strongest of the anti-acne tablets. CLP is right, if fuqs with ur liver and u aren't allowed to drink while on it. However, I was on it for 11 months and it stops acne for 3 times the amount of time u are on it, and hopefully when that time is up your body has matured out of the stage where it secrets that much oil.

i don't know bout lowering estrogen, but it causes your oil glands to shrivel up, which gives you dry skin all over. worth the money and effort.

They are all anti biotics. They won't contain estrogen I don't think.

I believe you are referring to doxycycline, which is a derivitive of tetracycline. No estrogen, just dry as hell skin!!
