PRESCRIPTION DRUG
To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain effectiveness of doxycycline hyclate tablets and other antibacterial drugs, doxycycline hyclate 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 hyclate tablets are indicated for the treatment of 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 , al
Each film-coated tablet for oral administration contains doxycycline hyclate equivalent to 100 mg of doxycycline (anhydrous).

Abbreviated New Drug Application
DOXYCYCLINE HYCLATE- DOXYCYCLINE HYCLATE TABLET ZYDUS PHARMACEUTICALS (USA) INC. ---------- DOXYCYCLINE HYCLATE TABLETS 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 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 indiv Läs hela dokumentet
