Been taking minocycline (generic for Dynacin) for about 6 mos. Several months ago I noticed a purple-ish rash about 2 inches in diameter on my back. I had a biopsy and it was determined to be an allergic reaction to something. I believe it was from the minocyline. Also, it makes me dizzy & numbs my tongue. Besides these, it cleared my adult acne.

About a year ago I was prescribed Dynacin or Minocycline for my acne. After a couple of months I noticed that I felt depressed, moody, and I started to break out in hives or rashes (not certain if drug caused). On top of that the medication did nothing for my acne! Save your money and stick to cleansing and treating acne with anything but oral antibiotics. Try these products: Cetaphil soap bar for cleansing, differin gel at night, and benzaclin or something with benzyl peroxide not more then 5% in the morning. Hope this helps!

I have an allegric reaction to Dynacin. I was only on it for 5 days. I felt terrible. My eyes went glassy and my head tingled and I started to breakout in a rash. My ears, lips and eyelids swelled. I went to he ER and the gave me an IV for about two hours. I was able to breath ok, that was my biggest concern. I am not allgeric to much or anything serevely, so this was a scary experience.
