Common Side Effects and How to Manage Them

Experience nausea? Try taking Doxycycline with food or a snack. This often alleviates stomach upset.

Dealing with diarrhea? Increase your fluid intake and consider over-the-counter anti-diarrheal medication. If it’s severe or persistent, consult your doctor.

Notice sun sensitivity? Wear sunscreen with a high SPF (30 or higher) and protective clothing when outdoors, especially during peak sun hours.

Suffering from heartburn? Take Doxycycline with a full glass of water and avoid lying down immediately after ingestion.

Develop a vaginal yeast infection? This is a known side effect; consult your doctor for treatment options.

Observe any unusual bleeding or bruising? Contact your doctor immediately; this could indicate a more serious issue.

Experience dizziness or lightheadedness? Avoid activities that require alertness, like driving, until these symptoms subside. Stay well hydrated.

Note any changes in your vision? Schedule an appointment with your doctor or ophthalmologist for a thorough examination.

Develop an allergic reaction (rash, hives, swelling, difficulty breathing)? Seek immediate medical attention; this is a medical emergency.

Remember to always follow your doctor’s instructions and report any concerning side effects promptly. This information does not substitute professional medical advice.
