Does Minocycline Cause Headaches,appetite Loss And Dizziness?
I have an eye infection and my eye doctor prescribed Minocycline 100MG. I am having some side affects which are: headaches, no taste buds, no appetitie and last Friday was walking and my body on its own went towards my left and took awhile to get back to walking straight which I attributed to being dizzy. Are all these symptons associated with this prescription? Thank you
