DOXYCYCLINE HYCLATE 100MG TAB
To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the
effectiveness
of Doxycycline and other antibacterial drugs, Doxycycline should be
used only to treat
or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be
caused by bacteria.
DESCRIPTION
Doxycycline hyclate is an antibacterial drug synthetically derived
from oxytetracycline.
The chemical designation for doxycyclin is
4-(Dimethylamino)-1,4,4a,5,5a,6,11,12a-
octahydro-3,5,10,12,12a-pentahydroxy-6-methyl-1,11-dioxo-2-naphthacene-
carboxamide monohydrate.
Doxycycline hyclate is yellow to light yellow powder. It is freely
soluble in water and
methanol, sparingly soluble in alcohol; practically insoluble in
chloroform and in ether. It
dissolves in aqueous solution of alkali hydroxides and carbonates.
Doxycycline has a high degree of lipoid solubility and a low affinity
for calcium binding. It
is highly stable in normal human serum. Doxycycline will not degrade
into an epianhydro
form. The structural formula is as follows:
Each film-coated tablet for oral administration contains doxycycline
hyclate equivalent to
100 mg of doxycycline (anhydrous). Inactive ingredients are: anhydrous
lactose,
croscarmellose sodium, colloidal silicon dioxide, hypromellose, iron
oxide yellow , iron
oxide red, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate,
polyethylene glycol,
pregelatinised starch and titanium dioxide.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Tetracyclines are readily absorbed and are bound to plasma proteins in
varying degree.
They are concentrated by the liver in the bile and excreted in the
urine and feces at high
concentrations and in a biologically active form. Doxycycline is
virtually completely
absorbed after oral administration.
Following a 200 mg dose, normal adult volunteers averaged peak serum
levels of 2.6
mcg/mL of doxycycline at 2 hours, decreasing to 1.45 mcg/mL at 24
hours. Excretion of
doxycycline by the kidney is about 40%/72 hours in i
