THERAPEUTIC CLASSIFICATION
Antibiotic
ACTIONS
MINOCYCLINE (minocycline hydrochloride) is a tetracycline with
antibacterial activity against
some Gram-negative and Gram-positive organisms. The action of
MINOCYCLINE is primarily
bacteriostatic and is thought to exert its antimicrobial effect by the
inhibition of protein synthesis.
Comparative Bioavailability
A single-dose, standard two-way crossover bioavailability study was
performed using normal
human volunteers. The rate and extent of absorption of minocycline
after a single oral dose of
200 mg given as either two 100 mg MINOCIN capsules or as two 100 mg
MINOCYCLINE
capsules was measured and compared. The results are summarized as
follows:
