Effectiveness
How Acticlate Affects PatientsDoxycycline and other tetracyclines work by preventing bacteria from making proteins, which keeps them from growing. These antibiotics are effective against a wide range of bacteria and are often resistant to other antibiotics. Doxycycline is able to penetrate cells, so it can reach bacteria that are otherwise hard to reach, and also has anti-parasitic and anti-inflammatory properties. It has been used to treat a variety of skin conditions such as bullous dermatoses and rosacea.
How Acticlate works in the bodyDoxycycline works to stop bacteria from making proteins they need to survive. It binds to the ribosomal subunit of bacteria, blocking the amino acid-RNA molecules from attaching to the mRNA-ribosome complex. This prevents bacteria from making the proteins they need to survive and function, ultimately killing them. It also works to reduce inflammation by preventing leukocyte movement and blocking nitric oxide, a molecule that helps create inflammation.
When to interrupt dosage
The recommended measure of Acticlate is contingent upon the diagnosed condition, such as Urethritis, Chlamydia trachomatis and Respiratory Tract Infections. The degree of dosage varies, in correspondence with the technique of administration (e.g. Capsule or Syrup - Oral) detailed in the table beneath.Condition

Acticlate Reviews: What are patients saying about Acticlate?
5Patient Review
9/2/2015 I began to experience negative side effects after the first two days of taking Acticlate. Headaches, excessive thirst, and general feelings of sickness like those associated with the flu. However, I have not had a fever and my acne does seem to be improving. Today, I have lost my appetite entirely.
5Patient Review
8/10/2017 I'm an older adult with rosacea, and this treatment really helped. I didn't have any problems with nausea, and would be happy to take it continuously if that were possible.
5Patient Review
3/18/2016 Though it doesn't agree with my stomach, this medication is otherwise effective.
4.7Patient Review
6/28/2016 This is the only product that has helped me with my acne. After taking it for six months, I'm almost completely clear! Right now I take 50mg, but I would like to know other people's experiences after stopping the medication.

4/25/2016 I've been using Acticlate for two months, and my face has cleared up considerably. I used to have really bad acne in 6th grade, but this medication has helped so much. My skin is almost clear now, with just the occasional pimple around my period.
4Patient Review
8/16/2015 I've just started taking the name brand version of this medication and so far I haven't had any issues. It's always best to take medicine with food, that way if there are any side effects they can be slept off. Also, it's important to note that dairy, antacids or iron products will neutralize the effectiveness of the medication if consumed within an hour before or after taking the medicine.
4Patient Review
1/11/2016 I'm curious if anyone knows if it's still effective after the expiration date.
4Patient Review
9/20/2016 It's important to be clear that this medication will only work as long as you're taking it. Once you stop, your acne will come back.
3.7Patient Review
5/7/2016 Despite the sometimes stomach aches, cramps and flu-like symptoms, this drug usually works well for me. I find that staying hydrated helps minimize these side effects.
3.3Patient Review
8/1/2016 This medication is effective while you are taking it, but as soon as you stop, the acne returns quickly.
3Patient Review
6/24/2016 I developed incredibly strong stomach cramps about a week into taking this medication, and those effects have persisted even after discontinuing use. I would not recommend this to others.
3Patient Review
10/19/2016 Easy to use but can give you an upset stomach on occasion. It works while you're on it but Acne will return once you stop taking it (mine came back 6 weeks after I stopped). Possibly even worse...
2.3Patient Review
6/14/2017 I unfortunately got a nasty yeast infection from this medication, which caused me to stop using it before I could see any benefits for my rosacea.
1Patient Review
11/25/2017 I was on the 75 mg for about a year, but it didn't help my acne. My derm then increased the dosage to 150mg, which made my skin worse before it supposedly got better. Six months later and I'm still dealing with breakouts that are worse than when I was on the lower dose.
1Patient Review
6/30/2017 The severe side effects from this medication landed me in the hospital. I was dizzy, throwing up, and felt nauseous. I needed an IV to flush it out of my system. Even after 24 hours off the med, I still didn't feel better.
1Patient Review
8/19/2017 I was incredibly disappointed with this pill. Not only did it not help my skin, but it made it worse. My skin was redder, drier, and I broke out more than ever before.
