Avatar m tn Is it safe to get Doxycycline 100mg on a long term basis? I am allergic to Wheat (i have not done allergy test but i noticed the last two year that after eating bread or pasta i get spots all over my head which turn into a rush-blood test showed that it is not fungus causing this reaction ) and the only thing that helps is this medicine. I would say it is a bit impossible to avoid wheat based food completely.
Avatar n tn What exactly has caused the lymph nodes to swell can be judged only by clinical examination and investigations like allergy testing to doxycycline,FNAC lymph nodes etc. I sincerely advise you to consult a physician and get this evaluated. Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional queries.Kind regards.
Avatar n tn I have a great number of environmental allergies and have learned that I am allergic to Keflex and sulfa drugs/antibiotics. It has gotten to the point that I can only take a Zpack, amoxicallan or doxycycline with the doxycicline as the last resort drug when the other 2 have failed (I typically have to take 2 or 3 courses to "cure" an infection. Well today I seem to be having an allergic reaction to the doxycycline.
Avatar m tn I was diagnosed with syphilis with a tither of 1:2 and reactive. Due to my allergy to penicillin, the doctor prescribed a 2 week treatment of doxycycline. I have completed the treatment. How long should I wait to be retested to make sure the treatment was effective? What would the expected results be?
Avatar m tn My wife has had an allergic reaction to doxycycline. She took pills for about one week and then she noticed a few red spots on her body. She stoped taking the medicine but the spots continued to spread more and more for over a week now. Someplace they just grow into one big spot anymore and they start to be itchy. Doctors say to wait, another says to take steroids, which we are reluctant to take. What shall we do? Anybody seen or heard about similar cases?

Avatar n tn If I been on doxycycline for 15 days and taking my antibiotics like I suppose to what are the chances that I could have spreaded syphillis while giving oral sex if I didn't finish? My activity included licking and briefly sucking it for like a 2-3 mins and then stopping..
Avatar m tn and I still have them since returning home two weeks ago. I was taking Doxycycline for malaria prevention, for about 30 days, and stopped about a week ago. Reaction to the meds? Nasty tropical disease?
Avatar f tn I am always on antibiotics and currently just got on 21 days of doxycycline. I was just on doxycycline for 10 days a month ago. My doc says I have a nasal polyp and I have ENT appt June 1st. I take advair, abruetoral when asthma may flare, singulair, and rhinocort or flonase when I can get samples. I normally cant afford the advair or singulair with out samples from doc. Anyway, I am tired of feeling drugged and sick.
Avatar m tn I was infected with std and my dotor gave me 1 vial of penicillin injection and 10 days of antibiotic doxycycline the discarge was gone but afterseveral weeks i atarted to feel itching all over my body sometimes there's a rash or but not specifically on my palm or feet. the itch came from random area of my body head, face, hands, legs, chest and etc. please help me on what do i need to do to resolve this thank you!
Avatar f tn Anyways, to end this rant.... the lyme literate doctor started me on 6 weeks of doxycycline. Needless to say, I am NOT happy about this. My husband and I both live a drug free life style and I barely take Tylenol, only when really needed. I don't even drink caffeine! I just worry that taking the doxycycline is all for nothing. And the doxycycline is killing me, I have such bad stomach aches with it, I almost went to the ER last night.
Avatar n tn Doctor, do you think these patches of folliculitis could be from food allergy, like some facial acne. Also i have taken doxycycline before and that took it away for the most part. would starting another regiment of that help clear the infection?
Avatar m tn I went to the doctor and he gave me 10 days of doxycycline 2 times a day. please help me to figure out what is going on.. could this be seconary syphilis..?
Avatar m tn The spot start to turn red and itch. So I went to the doctor and she prescribed doxycycline. A couple days after being on this medication, I noticed two very small reddish white bumps above the circumcision line of my penis, but below the head. I have not had any sexual activity in almost a year now and have never had anything like this before. I have been off the medication for almost two weeks and they are still there. In the beginning they seemed bigger.
Avatar m tn A week ago my doctor gave me doxycycline hydrate to fight off an infection that is causing me to have a itchy urethra. My doctor did not do a swap test or anything but thought i had a bacterial infection. Present day ( a week of the medication) I still feel the itchiness and am thinking that I have a yeast infection. I've heard eating yogurt can help fight it, but what about dairy free yogurt? Would eating one container of dairy free yogurt help?
Avatar f tn 3 years ago I took a 4 week course of doxycycline to treat a syphilis diagnosis. The vdrl titre fell from 1:32 and now is 1:2. The doctor tested igg and Igm levels too and they were dropping too until now, the igg levels were elevated. Does anyone know why this is? I'd appreciate anything you can tell me. Do I need to be treated again? I want to start a family but I won't unless this is resolved.
Avatar f tn About three weeks ago I had a low grade fever and a sore throat to go with it. The next day my fever was gone but I still had the sore throat. All the while I was suffering from body aches. About four days later I went to the doctor and they gave me doxycycline (b/c I'm allergic to pennicillen). I took this for ten days and it cleared right up. Then, four days after I came off of the antibiotics my sore throat is back?!?!?
Avatar n tn This same person has been a few times over the years for allergy skin tests and they tell her that she is only mildly allergic to this or that. The allergist told her that she is in the 20% that do not respond to allergy skin tests meaning that he does not know what she is allergic too but she is and thus she cannot get allergy shots because he does not know what she is allergic too? What is the answer? Have you ever heard of this happening to others?
Avatar m tn ve been to allergists, dermatologists and several doctors. Diagnosed as eczema, fungal rash and sulfur allergy. None of treatments work. Current doctor thinks it may be lymes and gave me doxycycline. I've been on it for 5 days and not seeing any improvement. Itching, burning discomfort is driving me crazy not to mention the embarrassment of covering the rash so I don't look like a freak at work. Sick of putting medications in me and not seeing results.

Avatar n tn I had my gallbladder removed late November. After being readmitted for 10 days until Dec 8th, I feel better however in early January I started breaking out on my upper torso and face with pinprick bumps that look like pimples at first. Some are itchy and today, I still have them and nothing is working to get rid of them. Has anyone experienced anything like this after gall bladder surgery? right now I've been on prednisone and now doxycycline to try to clear them up.
Avatar n tn How affective is doxycycline 100mg when taken for a period of seven days to cure infections and std's present in the body alone with a shot a penicillin.
Avatar f tn where did the pills come from?
