Guest guest Posted April 9, 2002 Report Share Posted April 9, 2002 Hi Adam Thanks for your concern about the anti-biotices. I have not taken any , and I mean zero, for about 10 years. Not even for any other medical condition that might requite an antibiotic. One derm who initially did not think I had rosacea but just skin damage from skincare. scrubs and simply bombarding my skin with too many products prescribe minocycline for maybe 6 months. At that time I had no bumps, well in fact, I still don't get any bumps or pimples. And " just a thought " is not just a thought in my opinion. Sometimes something whihc we sometimes feel may be so insignificant and so common sensical will prove to be very valuable. thnaks much and take care Re: Any info of Dr. Sys new sebderm cleanser? > , > > I may have asked you this before, but do you take antibiotics for your > cea (Minocycline, Tetracycline, Doxycycline, Zithromax etc?)
