Why SOLODYN^® Tablets?

Unlike other minocycline products, only SOLODYN^® releases its active ingredient (minocycline) slowly into the bloodstream. No other minocyclines work the same way in the body as SOLODYN. Other benefits of SOLODYN include:

You only have to take one SOLODYN^® Tablet per day, and you can take it whenever it’s most convenient for you; morning, afternoon or night. (You should take it at the same time every day.)

Other oral antibiotics must be taken on an empty stomach to ensure proper absorption into the bloodstream. SOLODYN^® Tablets work just as well on a full or empty stomach.
Close

One SOLODYN^® Tablet remains effective for 24 hours. Studies show that higher doses of SOLODYN do not work any better, and may result in more severe side effects, such as greater dizziness and headaches. Most patients observe improvement in their acne within 12 weeks.

SOLODYN^® Tablets come in three strengths (45, 90 & 135 mg) to make sure you receive the right amount of medicine for your weight.
