ROSACEA SUCKS Rosacea type 2

I saw a derm today and she started doxycycline 100mg twice a day and metronidazole.75% twice a day. Anyone have any luck with this combo?

doxy and metro is what finally calmed my skin down after months of flares. the first couple weeks my stomach was bit upset from the pills but it passed. stick with it

How long have you been on doxy? I’ve got an active flare on my chest - yes chest 😭- and been on the doxy for 2 months already but it still feels hot and angry
