What is Doxine (Doxycycline Hyclate) used for?

Doxine (Doxycycline Hyclate) is a tetracycline antibiotic prescribed to treat patients suffering from a wide variety of bacterial infections. It operates by destroying or slowing the reproduction of bacteria cells allowing the immune system to destroy the infection. The medication is useful for treating conditions such as acne, mouth ulcers, gonorrhea, Chlamydia, syphilis, or infections of the skin, respiratory tract, urinary tract, sinuses, or soft tissues. Your physician may prescribe it to treat other unlisted conditions, as well.

How should I use Doxine (Doxycycline Hyclate)?

Doxine (Doxycycline Hyclate) is normally taken once or twice each day at a dosage of one tablet for a period of medication lasting one or two weeks, but your particular instructions will depend on the condition being treated, your current health, and the severity of your symptoms. These should be swallowed with a large glass of water on an empty stomach. Do not stop taking your doses before being told to do so, even if your symptoms seem to have disappeared, as the infection may return stronger or more resistant to treatment. Never split, chew, or crush the tablets to avoid unintentionally destroying or altering the effects of their contents. Ask your physician any questions you have about the medicine to ensure the correct administration.
