A member asked:

Does doxycycline have codine in ?? i took one an hour ago and now am vomiting but am allergic to codine on them for bad chest infection

Dr. John Chiu answered

No: But gastric side effects are common with doxycycline. If you have taken it with food and still get vomiting, ask your doctor for a substitute. There is no codeine in doxycycline.
