I was cleared up after a week and the reoccurance has been nil. No side effects to speak of. I've never seen a product work as fast and as well as this one. I'm very satisfied and now I can smile and be seen in public again. I'm experiencing adult acne and problems due to age and menopause, this has helped tremendously. Published: October 08, 2007 ::

Problems as I take calcium twice a day. Between trying to take this medication without eating and not taking my calcium it is hard to find a time to take it. Also I do get stomach and naseau at certain times. Possibly because it is on an empty stomach as they advise. Published: September 26, 2007 ::

I've used it now for 3 years. I can tell when I go off for even a weekend, as my rosacea flares and severe pustules & acne form. It takes at least a week for it to kick in again, after missing several doses. It does not prevent all my acne - but does prevent breakouts from the rosacea, esp. around my nose and it decreases the redness. I had severe rosacea w/ breakouts. I looked like Rudolph the Reindeer. I've gotten used to taking it immediatly in the AM, so no breakfast until 1-2hrs later. I am worried about long-term effects and am wondering whether anyone else has experienced any.

I have had terrible skin my entire life. Problems w acne & other problems recently due to my age... This product has done wonders for my skin. I havent had anything clear my skin so effectively...and so quickly. Did get a yeast infection about 3 wks into treatment...which was cured w 1 dose of 200mg Fluconazole. The pros definately out weighed the con. Been on treatment for 5-6 weeks. Published: October 19, 2008 ::

Difficult to take on an empty stomach and avoid taking the calcium I need. My outbreaks have gotten worse; but it did clear up the acne that recently started. It has dried out my face and destroyed my nails. Published: March 17, 2008 ::

I have had rosacea for about 10 years and have taken Doxycycline until about 2 months ago when my doctor switched me to Oracea and Metrogel. I have found the rosacea has almost completely disappeared and I am very happy with it. An interesting side effect as I am also a diabetic. I don't know the reason but since starting to take Oracea I have noticed a drop in blood sugar levels more into the normal range. To some extent I am curious as to why this is happening. I stopped taking Oracea for several days then started taking it again. Blood sugar levels went up with out Oracea and then went down with Oracea. This is for general information for other researchers. Published: March 16, 2009 ::

I take oracea with metrol gel 1% and they have taken away all the blister-like pimples from my face. I still have redness though. I'm not sure which medication is working best, but together they work great. The rocasea used to be so bad and I am so happy to have found a regimen that works for me. Published: January 27, 2009 ::
