About Andoxy 100mg Injection

DOXYCYCLINE belongs to a group of medications called tetracycline antibiotics, used to treat bacterial infections. DOXYCYCLINE treats urinary tract infections, intestinal infections, respiratory infections, eye infections, sexually transmitted infections (like gonorrhea, syphilis), gum infections, diseases (like periodontitis), and others. Besides this, DOXYCYCLINE also treats acne-like lesions caused by rosacea. However, it does not treat facial redness caused by rosacea. 

DOXYCYCLINE being an antibiotic prevents the growth of bacterial cells (the bad ones!) by preventing the formation of the outer protein layer of bacteria (cell wall) responsible for bacteria's growth and multiplication. It is a broad-spectrum antibiotic, i.e. it acts against various bacteria. It is a bacteriostatic antibiotic, i.e. it stops bacteria growth but does not kill them.

DOXYCYCLINE should only be taken if advised by your doctor. It can be taken with or without food but should be consumed at a fixed time for the best results. You should complete the course of DOXYCYCLINE as your doctor prescribes for better results. Some common side effects of DOXYCYCLINE are nausea (feeling or being sick), vomiting, diarrhea, etc. Please consult your doctor if these side effects become troublesome.

DOXYCYCLINE is a pregnancy category D (high risk) medicine, so its use in pregnant and nursing mothers is not recommended. Use of DOXYCYCLINE during tooth development (last half of pregnancy, infancy, and childhood up to the age of 8 years) may cause teeth staining (yellow-grey-brown). Do not consume alcohol as it may cause excessive drowsiness when taken along with DOXYCYCLINE. Before using DOXYCYCLINE, tell your doctor if you ever had an allergy to DOXYCYCLINE, have kidney problems, liver problems, swollen food pipe (esophagitis), or muscle disease (myasthenia gravis). Please do not drink alcohol with DOXYCYCLINE as it may increase unpleasant side effects like drowsiness and dizziness.

In-Depth Precautions and Warning

Drug Warnings

Iron and antacid (like magnesium hydroxide and aluminium hydroxide) may bind to DOXYCYCLINE in the gastrointestinal tract, lowering its efficiency. So, a gap of at least 2 hours should be maintained between intake of DOXYCYCLINE and iron supplements and antacids. Prolonged use of DOXYCYCLINE during tooth development (last half of pregnancy, infancy, and childhood to the age of 8 years) may cause permanent discolouration of the teeth (yellow-grey-brown). Besides this, in some cases, the use of DOXYCYCLINE causes antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. DOXYCYCLINE may cause sensitive skin to sunlight and ultraviolet rays, causing an exaggerated sunburn reaction. Hence it is advisable to apply sunscreen before going outside. Its use has also been associated with an increased risk of fungal skin infections like (vaginal candidiasis - thrush). Tetracycline and DOXYCYCLINE can form a stable calcium complex in bone-forming tissue, thereby affecting the growth of fibula bones in young children and bone development in the foetus. Using a DOXYCYCLINE with isotretinoin should be avoided as it has been reported to cause pseudotumor cerebri (increased pressure inside the brain). Long-term use of DOXYCYCLINE may affect your blood, kidney, and liver health, so yearly diagnostics test of these parameters is recommended. DOXYCYCLINE does not completely prevent malaria caused by P. falciparum as a DOXYCYCLINE is given only for the prophylactic regimen (protection) whenever anyone enters a malaria-prone area.

Drug Interactions


Drug-Drug Interaction:

DOXYCYCLINE is contraindicated in persons who have shown hypersensitivity to any of the tetracycline or penicillin, retinoid medications taken by mouth (such as acitretin, isotretinoin), blood thinners (such as warfarin), heart disease medicine (digoxin), anti-seizure medications (such as phenytoin, carbamazepine), antacids (especially those containing aluminum, calcium, or magnesium, bismuth subsalicylate), iron supplements, and oral birth control pills. 

Drug-Disease Interaction:

DOXYCYCLINE should not be given to people with kidney problems, liver problems, swollen food pipe (esophagitis), lupus disease (an autoimmune disease), or muscle disease (myasthenia gravis).

Safety Advice

ALCOHOL

DOXYCYCLINE should not be taken until prescribed if you are taking alcohol. Keep your doctor informed if you drink alcohol.

PREGNANCY

DOXYCYCLINE is a Pregnancy Category D. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies on the use of doxycycline in pregnant women. In some cases, taking DOXYCYCLINE during pregnancy may affect tooth and bone development in the unborn baby. So, if you are pregnant or planning for pregnancy contact the doctor before using a DOXYCYCLINE.

BREAST FEEDING

DOXYCYCLINE is excreted in breast milk however, the extent of absorption of DOXYCYCLINE, by the breastfed infant is not known. Hence, the nursing mother before using a DOXYCYCLINE should contact the doctor.

DRIVING

The effect of doxycycline on the ability to drive or operate heavy machinery has not been fully studied but there is no evidence to suggest that doxycycline may affect the ability to drive. Discuss with your doctor if you have any concerns or are having unusual sleepiness or drowsiness after taking DOXYCYCLINE.

LIVER

DOXYCYCLINE is to be taken with caution, especially if you have a history of liver diseases/conditions. The dose may have to be adjusted by your doctor.

KIDNEY

At the recommended doses, DOXYCYCLINE is safe to use in patients with kidney disease and no dose adjustment is warranted. If prescribed by a doctor, DOXYCYCLINE can be safely used. But it is best to discuss with your doctor if you have a known kidney disease/condition.
