Tetracycline side effects?

Posted , 2 users are following.

My doctor just prescribed me with Tetracycline for my acne but I have emetophobia (fear of throwing up)

and I read the side effects and one of the common side effects are throwing up - which makes me very hesitant to start taking them.

so does anyone have any experience with this medication, that can tell me what their experience was?

    just make sure to follow instructions taking w water or food . if on empty stomach do so. make sure to wear spf and keep skin moisturize. regular mints help soothe stomach or fresh mint.

    Agree with natalie...make sure you take on a full stomach.
