Purpose
Doxycycline is a broad-spectrum antibiotic used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections. It is commonly prescribed for respiratory tract infections, skin infections, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), Lyme disease, malaria prevention, and certain eye infections. As a tetracycline-class antibiotic, it effectively combats both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.
How It Works
Doxycycline works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, which stops the growth and reproduction of bacteria. Its mechanism includes:
- Binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit – prevents the addition of new amino acids during translation.
- Broad antimicrobial coverage – active against various pathogens including Rickettsia, Chlamydia, and Mycoplasma.
Usage
- Administration: Taken orally with a full glass of water, ideally on an empty stomach or as directed by a healthcare provider.
- Effectiveness: Improvement in symptoms is usually seen within a few days of starting the treatment.
- Recommended dosage: Typically 100 mg twice daily, though may vary depending on the infection type and severity.
Precautions
Before using Doxycycline, consider the following precautions:
- Do not lie down for at least 30 minutes after taking the tablet to avoid esophageal irritation.
- Avoid prolonged sun exposure; doxycycline may increase sensitivity to sunlight.
- Not recommended for children under 8 years or during pregnancy, unless clearly needed.
Contraindications
This medication should not be used in patients with:
- Known hypersensitivity to doxycycline or other tetracyclines.
- Severe liver or kidney disease (caution required).
- Pregnancy, especially in the second and third trimester.
Possible Side Effects
Common and potential side effects include:
- Nausea or vomiting
- Diarrhea – including possible risk of C. difficile infection.
- Photosensitivity – skin rash or sunburn-like reactions.
- Tooth discoloration – in children or long-term use.
Seek medical advice if severe or persistent side effects occur.
Drug Interaction
Doxycycline may interact with the following:
- Antacids and supplements containing calcium, iron, or magnesium – reduce absorption.
- Blood thinners like warfarin – increased risk of bleeding.
- Oral contraceptives – may reduce effectiveness.
Missed Dose
If a dose is missed, take it as soon as remembered. If it’s almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and continue the regular schedule. Do not double the dose.
Overdose
Overdose symptoms may include:
- Severe nausea or vomiting
- Vision problems
- Confusion or dizziness
Seek emergency medical help in case of suspected overdose.
Storage
Store Doxycycline at room temperature away from moisture, heat, and light. Keep the container tightly closed and out of reach of children and pets. Do not use expired medication.
Available Dosages
- 100 mg tablets or capsules
