I had to take an antibiotic while on and it did seem to slow the gains.

I take minocycline for my acne it does a great job,Other people have told me that it won't make any noticable difference

I took it and still got great gains so no it will not affect your gains

For the past month, i've been on about 6 antibiotics for this cough I have and also on my cycle. I think my gains have been affected a little. Now i'm on Singulair and Flonase. The biggest being my weight fluctuating alot. Strength really hasn't increased that much either. I'm running prop/eq btw.
