Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Tetralysal is highly effective in treatment of facial acne, prescribed for varying period of time usually 6 to 8 weeks of duration.
Recurrence is possible with any sort of acne treatment to varying levels. That medicine is not known to give weight gain as a side effect except certain GI upset and visual disturbances on long-term.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Purva Patel
