A member asked:
Can i pour the doxycycline capsule contents into a smoothie & consume it ? will it still be effective if i mixed 200mg in and took it as a single dose

Probably not: Better on empty stomach ie not with food. Unfortunately smoothie is mixing it with food and recommended to have 1h before or 2h after food

Yes, but...: You could do this and it would still be effective. But why? Capsules should be easy to swallow.
