Side effects on Ortho-trycyclin?

I just started it and have two zits.  WTF.  I don't suppose any of you lost weight on it????

Re: Side effects on Ortho-trycyclin?

  • I was put on that when I was younger- it cleared up my skin but I gained about 5-10 pounds- not sure if it was the meds or just me eating too much though. Of course the med might have changed since that was oh, 15 or so years ago.
  • I think it made me gain weight.  Also make sure you start it on the day you are supposed to, I've had to double up a few times and it always makes me sick.

  • It has actually cleared up my face but I feel more anxious and I'm eating more I can tell.
  • I have been on this for the last 7 years or so.  I have not had any side effects.  I actually weigh less now than when I got  married!  I weigh what I did in high school- 4 kids ago!  As far as break outs, I have had none. The only time that happens is when I am pg.
