Doxy 100

I notices I am get extremly fatigued after taking Doxycycl Hycl Cap 100mg for acne. Is this normal? ## Hi Mary, Interestingly enough, "extreme tiredness or weakness" is in-fact listed as a severe side effect of Doxycycline. In such cases, it is recommended that you contact your doctor immediately to help address this issue. Referenced from: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0000563/#a682063-sideEffects Have you considered trying any other natural alternatives that might be just as effective as Doxycycline, but without the side effects? If not, I'd recommend looking into Oregano Essential Oil. It's a cheap, yet, effective method for infections of any kind. I hope this helps!

i was prescribed this for a vaginal bacteria infection. since i have been taking it i have experienced itching in this region and almost feels sensitive and swollen. is this normal? am i allergic? ## Unfortunately, while Doxycycline is an antibiotic that can treat bacterial infections, it can cause a fungal yeast infection, as a side effect. Thus, you should visit your doctor, again, because you will probably need an antifungal medication to treat that. Are there any other questions or comments?

There have even been cases where it turned fatal, because the infection became systemic. So, the point I'm trying to make is that the risks are far, far greater if you don't take the antibiotics and let the infection continue out of control. And as to their being alternatives, no there aren&...
