What can I eat while taking this medicine? I am scared to eat pretty much anything?? ## Hi, Tubbs! There's no reason to be afraid to eat anything, doing so isn't dangerous. It's just that taking it on an empty stomach is better, since it allows you to absorb more of the medication, so it can reach a better efficacy level in your body to eradicate the infection being treated. It should be taken at least an hour before, or two hours after eating anything. Additionally, it's best to avoid dairy products, while taking it, because they can also affect the absorption of it. Learn more Doxycycline details here. Is there anything else I can help with? Are there any other concerns? ## Thank you, that was very helpful!

I started taking this because of cellulitis. I have completed a full day of medication. I have a low grade fever and slight body aches. Is that normal? ## Hello, Sarah! How are you? Yes, the infection will typically still be affecting you, after such a short period of time, as well as the side effects from the antibiotic. The general rule, if the antibiotic is working, is that you shouldn't see any worsening of your condition after a full 24 hours of taking it and then you should start to see improvement after 3 full days. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this antibiotic as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with?

I am afraid to take the DOXY-CYCL HYCL 100mg tabs becaus eof the side effects. Yet I have been told I have cellucitis on my lower right leg. I have also been given CEPHALEXIN 500mg CAP LUP Are there any alternatives??? ## The first thing you need to understand is that cellulitis can be a very dangerous infection. In cases where people left it untreated, they have lost limbs or had to have large sections of flesh and muscle tissue removed that resulted in permanent scarring and disfigurement. 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&...
