To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain effectiveness of doxycycline tablets and other antibacterial drugs, doxycycline tablets should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria. When culture and susceptibility information are available, they should be considered in selecting or modifying antibacterial therapy. In the absence of such data, local epidemiology and susceptibility patterns may contribute to the empiric selection of therapy. Doxycycline is indicated for the treatment of the following infections: Rocky mountain spotted fever, typhus fever and the typhus group, Q fever, rickettsialpox, and tick fevers caused by Rickettsiae . Respiratory tract infections caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae . Lymphogranuloma venereum caused by Chlamydia trachomatis . Psittacosis (ornithosis) caused by

Doxycycline is a broad-spectrum antibacterial synthetically derived

monohydrate equivalent to 150 mg, 100

Doxycycline has a high degree of lipid solubility and a low affinity
for calcium binding. It is highly
stable in normal human serum. Doxycycline will not degrade into an
epianhydro form.
Inert ingredients: lactose monohydrate, microcrystalline cellulose,
sodium starch glycolate,
hypromellose 2910, magnesium stearate and opadry 04G84829 pink which
contains: hypromellose
2910, talc, titanium dioxide, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol
6000, iron oxide yellow and iron
oxide red.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Tetracyclines are readily absorbed and are bound to plasma proteins in
varying degrees. They are
concentrated by the liver in the bile and excreted in the urine and
feces at high concentrations in a
biologically active form. Doxycycline is virtually completely absorbed
after oral administration.
Following a 200 mg dose of doxycycline monohydrate, 24 normal adult
volunteers averaged the
following serum concentration values:
