(doxycycline is indicated in the treatment of trachoma, although the infectious agent is not always elminated, as judged by immunofluorescence. inclusion conjunctivitis may be treated with oral doxycycline, or in combination with topical agents.) borreliae (relapsing fever); calymmatobacterium (donovania) granulomatis (granuloma inguinale). doxycycline sandoz is indicated for the treatment of anthrax due to bacillus anthracis, including inhalational anthrax (post-exposure) to reduce the incidence or progression of disease following exposure to aerosolized bacillus anthracis (see dosage and administration). infections caused by the following gram-negative micro-organisms: vibrio sp.
