Doxycycline.

Doxycycline can be prescribed by your doctor for the treatment of respiratory tract infections, as well as infections of skin and genitals caused by bacteria. Do not take doxycycline with milk or food unless your doctor told you to do otherwise, as doing so may affect the absorption of doxycycline and render your treatment less efficient. Make sure you continue taking this drug even if you feel fine – as feeling fine does not mean your infections has been treatment. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other drugs besides doxycycline, as some of them can cause interactions. The following ones are important to mention: antacids, over-the-counter vitamin and mineral supplements, isotretinoin, cholesterol-lowering medications, minerals, penicillin antibiotics, blood thinners, and tretinoin. Side effects of doxycycline are possible and include the following symptoms: vomiting, sores or swelling in your rectal or genital area, vaginal itching, stomach upset, swollen tongue, sore mouth, diarrhea, trouble swallowing, mild nausea, and some other ones. There is no need to report them to your health care provider unless they get bothersome and start to interfere with your everyday life.
