I have been taking milk with doxycycline should i tell my doctor to subscribe more incase it didn't work?

Stop taking milk: Either stop taking milk or else your doctor will need to change your antibiotic. Your doctor can't predict how much of your antibiotic binds to the calcium and limits absorption. As a result, suboptimal concentrations of the drug will potentially result in bacterial resistance.
