To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain effectiveness of Doxycycline for Oral Suspension, USP and other antibacterial drugs 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 Chlamydophila psittaci . - Trachoma caused by Chlamydia trachomatis, although the infectious agent is not always elimi

Abbreviated New Drug Application
DOXYCYCLINE- DOXYCYCLINE POWDER, FOR SUSPENSION HARRIS PHARMACEUTICAL, INC ---------- DOXYCYCLINE FOR ORAL SUSPENSION, USP RX ONLY 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 is an antibacterial drug synthetically derived from oxytetracycline, and is available as Doxycycline for Oral Suspension, USP (doxycycline monohydrate); for oral administration. The structural formula of doxycycline monohydrate is with a molecular formula of C H N O ·H O and a molecular weight of 462.46. The chemical designation for doxycycline is 4-(Dimethylamino)-1,4,4a,5,5a,6,11,12a-octahydro-3,5,10, 12,12apentahydroxy-6-methyl-1,11-dioxo-2-naphthacenecarboxamide monohydrate. Doxycycline is a light yellow crystalline powder. Doxycycline monohydrate is very slightly soluble in water. 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. Doxycycline for Oral Suspension, USP contains the following inactive ingredients: confectioner's sugar, D&C red #27 aluminum lake, ethyl acetate, maltodextrin, methylparaben, microcrystalline cellulose/ sodium carboxymethylcellulose, modified cornstarch, natural flavoring; propylparaben, simethicone and sucrose. 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 Прочитать полный документ
