Doxycycline capsules are a tetracycline antibiotic that helps the body fight germs. Acne, urinary tract infections, intestinal infections, respiratory infections, eye infections, gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, periodontitis (gum disease), and other bacterial infections are treated with doxycycline. However, if you are allergic to any tetracycline antibiotic, you should avoid taking doxycycline. Doxycycline should only be given to children under the age of eight if they are suffering from serious or life-threatening diseases. Also, Doxycycline use during pregnancy may harm the unborn child or result in permanent tooth discoloration later in life. Always consult with your doctor first.

If you have ever had liver illness, renal disease, or asthma, tell your doctor before using Doxycycline capsule 100mg. Note that if you're using doxycycline to treat chlamydia, your doctor may test you for gonorrhea, which is another sexually transmitted disease. If you are pregnant or get pregnant while taking this medication, tell your doctor right away.

It is good to know that Doxycycline can reduce the effectiveness of birth control tablets. To avoid pregnancy, talk to your doctor about using a non-hormonal birth control method. While using this medication, you should not breastfeed and always follow your doctor's instructions for taking doxycycline. Doxycycline capsules should be taken with a full glass of water.
