Doxycycl Hyc 100mg Side Effect Need To Know

Can this be taken for a "boil" type bump ? And if so when I was younger and was taking tetracycline acne medicine and it caused me to have a rare side effect where it caused excess spinal fluid, will the doxycycl do the same thing?

HI Rachael,

Doxycycline is used to treat different types of bacterial infections including, If the boil is infected it could possibly work. The only thing is, Doxycycline and Tetracycline are both pretty similar so there is a possibility that you could have a reaction. Increase in spinal fluid isn't stated as a side effects though.

The side effects for Doxycycline are as follows:
Stomach upset, diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting. If you experience a severe sunburn, vision changes (such as blurred vision), unusual/severe headache, or change in the amount of urine, tell your doctor immediately.

I took doxy-cycl hycl and notice that my left eye has blurred vision and I see floaters.
I took the pills (100mg) twice a day starting July 18 and still have the vision problem.
Will it get better or should I see a doctor.
