I'm on minocycline from my dermatologist to take twice a day but i missed it yesterday and i'm also getting a cold. is it safe to take cold medication while on minocycline. if not, what's an alternative that's safe for getting rid of a cold?

Yes it is safe. Colds are generally viral and run the course before getting better . You can minimize symptoms by otc meds, fluids
