What is doxy cycline?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Like tetracycline...: Doxycycline in a broad spectrum antibiotic has a wide range of indications. Unlike tetracycline, it is more foregiving when it comes to milk ( it does lose its effectiveness if taken concurrently). You still have to watch out for side effects such as photo sensitivity ( bad sunburn when exposed to the sun) and severe nausea. It should not be taken at the same time as iron or calcium supplements.
