A member asked:
Is it normal to have chest pain, stomach pain, diarrhea, and vomiting while taking vibramycin (doxycycline)?

No: Call your physician right away. This is not a normal expected reaction that i would accept. Stop taking the medication until further directions from your doctor. If you can't get a hold your doctor, go to the er.

Yes :(: Sadly i think vibramycin (doxycycline) is particularly prone to this constellation of side-effects. I would stop taking them, see prescribing md and obtain alternative.
