DOXYCILLIN TABLET 100 MG
A 8 mm diameter, round, convex, film-coated, green tablet.
_Each tablet contains Doxycycline HCI equivalent to Doxycycline 100
mg._
Doxycycline, the active ingredient in Doxycillin, is a tetracycline
derivative with uses similar to those of tetracycline hydrochloride.
Doxycyclines are the drug of choice in rickettsial, chlamydial and
mycoplasmal infections. They are widely used as part of regimens for
pelvic
inflammatory
disease
and
genitourinary
tract
infections.
Doxycillin is used for the treatment of choice in relapsing fever and
in
the early stages of Lyme disease. It is also used in the oral
treatment of
acne and rosacea and skin and soft tissue infections. It may be of
benefit in the treatment of melioidosis and mouth infections,
especially
in destructive forms of periodontal disease. Doxycyclines are often
used
as adjunct therapy in the treatment of brucellosis, gonorrhoea with
concomitant chlamydial infections, falciparum malaria resistant to
chloroquine,
severe
amoebic
dysentery
and
Dientamoeba
fragilis
infections. It is also used as an alternative to other drugs in the
treatment
of
tularaemia,
bronchitis,
granuloma
inguinale,
leptospirosis, syphilis and yaws. Doxycycline can be used for the
treatment of urinary tract infections.
Doxycycline is taken up into sensitive bacterial cells by an active
transport process. Once within the cell it binds reversibly to the 30S
subunit of the ribosome, preventing the binding of aminoacyl transfer
RNA (tRNA) to the messenger RNA (mRNA) ribosome complex and
inhibiting protein synthesis and hence cell growth. Bacterial cell
wall
synthesis is not inhibited. Although doxycyline also inhibits protein
synthesis in mammalian cells, it is not actively taken up, permitting
selective effects on the infecting organism.
Doxycycline, a lipophilic analogue of tetracycline, is readily and
almost
completely absorbed (more than 90%) from the gastrointestinal tract
and absoption is not significantly affected by the presence of food in
the stomach. Admimistrati
