Oracea

User Ratings:
3.5	Effectiveness
5.8	Side Effects
4.4	Holistic Benefits

Oracea has worked for me. While not completely gone, my rosacea is markedly improved. However, I have concluded that Oracea is probably also the source of my severe joint pain, muscle soreness and fatigue. After years of ineffective treatments for my rosacea, I was skeptical and reluctant to take a daily antibiotic treatment. Not only am I concerned about the risk of antibiotic immunity, but I am highly susceptible to candida whenever I take any antibiotic. Also, nothing had been effecti... View full comment

Doxycycline Hyclate

User Ratings:
2.9	Effectiveness
6.5	Side Effects
4.3	Holistic Benefits

The medication has really helped clear up my roscea but at the expense of my digestive system. I already had IBS with diahhrea and recently had gallbladder surgery so when the diahhrea become worse I blamed it on the surgery but was confused because I didn't notice it to be any worse directly after surgery. It finally hit me that I had resumed Doxycycline Hyclate a few weeks after surgery and after looking up side affects, I now believe the worsing symptoms could very well be the medication....

Levora

User Ratings:
3.1	Effectiveness
7	Side Effects
4.8	Holistic Benefits

I took levora for about 6 months and had to stop because the side effects. I had never taken the pill before this and didn't know what to expect. I gained about 20 lbs within the first 4 months and constantly had breast tenderness. I had extreme mood swings and a complete loss of sex drive. I often felt tired and dizzy, and for days at a time would experience terrible headaches. Since I stopped taking Levora I now have extreme digestive problems and I wonder if it is related to being on t... View full comment

Microgestin

User Ratings:
6	Effectiveness
5.3	Side Effects
5.7	Holistic Benefits

I'm usually satisfied with Microgestin, but lately it's been inconsistent with relieving my pain and heaviness of flow. I also had irregular bleeding 2 weeks before my normal period. I'm unsure if this is normal or a problem with Microgestin, but it will be discussed with my doctor.

Pristiq

User Ratings:
4	Effectiveness
7	Side Effects
5.4	Holistic Benefits

I take pristiq with wellbutrin(150 mg) every day. The combination helps to manage my depression and anxiety. I have a very stressful job and have had a tremendous amount of stress in my life due to personal and professional events. When I started taking the meds I thought I felt like I was in major depression. Now months later I still have a lot of stress but I can now manage it better and don't feel as helpless as I did before. My situation hasn't changed significantly but I no longer have t...
