Avatar m tn Is this freckling/petechial rash from the sun a common reaction to doxycycline? How long should I expect it to last? Is this something I should bring to the attention of a doctor? Should I be protecting it from the sun for now?
Avatar n tn Hi, It is found that patients on doxycycline can notice sun burn like or severe skin reaction on exposed parts. Some might have liver dysfunction or renal dysfunction. They also have anti-anabolic effect; hence more protein is broken down and increases the urea content. Some patients can have vertigo and nystagmus like symptoms. I would like to know, how old are you? For what have they prescribed you Doxycycline? Since when are you experiencing chest pain? Keep me informed. Bye.
Avatar f tn Are you taking any prescriptions that would make you sensitive to the sun, such as doxycycline? Has the doctor tested your iron level?
Avatar m tn Marien Hospital in Cologne who confirmed the diagnosis and prescribed 200mg of doxycycline per day for 10 days. At the end of the 2nd day, I developed a full body rash. Smallish, flattish red bumps almost connected. I was in the sun that day with 50 sunscreen, fully covered skin and hat. We will be in the port of Miltenberg, Germany at 2 pm for 4 hours. Tomorrow I will be in Wertheim. What should I do?
Avatar f tn Of the 135 troops, 22 exhibited phototoxic reactions to low dosages of doxycycline that resembled severe sunburn with erythematous plaques on the sun-exposed areas. The troops used a sunscreen containing oxybenzone. An 11-year-old boy treated with doxycycline for brucellosis was evaluated for painless brown nail discoloration.

Avatar f tn I took Doxycycline for 10 days to treat a sinus infection. A week after finishing the Doxy I developed a sore throat and sore tongue. I'm assuming it is a reaction to the drug. How long will this stay in my system and is there anything I can take to alleviate the reaction?
Avatar n tn I have been on doxycycline an antibiotic for about 5 days and i seem to be feeling very anxious and panic like. Does anyone know if this can cause these symptoms. I am also on 25mg of zoloft. Thanks for any help you can give me.
Avatar n tn I took single dose of doxycycline everyday for 6 weeks during the summer. Would that have cleared a chamydia infection.

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 m tn So after 2 more days of extreme pain I went back to him on SUn. 1-2 and he told me I might have a resistent strain and put me on doxy for 7 days and this time he sent my urine out for testing. But mind you the burning was the worst pain I ever felt, now after about a day and a half the burning started to lessen.
Avatar f tn Hi all, I was diagnosed with perioral dermatitis and prescribed oral doxycycline and metronidazole cream - seems like a pretty standard treatment - and it worked like a charm within a week. The doctor prescribed 6 weeks of the oral and didn’t mention any length of time for the cream. I stopped using the cream once the rash was gone and have reduced capsules to once a day instead of twice. I have about 10 days left of the capsules.
Avatar n tn She developed a circular rash and fever in late June 2009. Doctor suspected ehrlichiosis, prescribed 30-day doxycycline. My mom also did lyme test right after the rash and fever, that came back negative. After just a few days doxycycline treatment, she does not have any symptom. Then in October, I want to make sure, she did a lyme test again although she does not have any symptom, but that came back positive.
Avatar f tn She started with a rash on her hands and face, was given a high dose of erythromycin and became much worse after being out in the sun. She was taken off the antibiotics after going to Urgent Care and since then has visited her pcp, dermatologists, dermatopathologists (2) who took biopsies, rheumatologists, an endocrinologist and no one appears to know what is going on with her. She tests positive for Lupus on first blood test, then after a workup from rheumatologist it comes out negative.
Avatar m tn He says wait until mon and return if they persist. Sun with unbearable pain I return and he says I might have resistent strain and need to test urine. Give sample and he also starts me on Doxy 100 for 7 days. By tues. burning starts to subside. On. wed doc calls me in and tells me that urine came back neg for Chlamydia and Gonorrhea. he says the 1st batch of antibiotics most likely knocked it out even though symptoms persisted. On Sat. (last day of doxy) still have slight burning.
Avatar n tn For people with more severe cases, doctors often prescribe an oral (taken by mouth) antibiotic. Tetracycline, minocycline, erythromycin, and doxycycline are the most common antibiotics used to treat rosacea. Some people respond quickly, while others require long-term therapy. Isotretinoin may be considered as a treatment option for all forms of severe or therapy-resistant rosacea.
Avatar f tn I went on vacation three months into tx and have been a sun tan person my whole life. First day in sun within an hour I got little red dots all over and they itched!! Stayed out of sun unless I had on light clothes. I asked this question when I got BACK from vacation! LOL. Someone suggested child's strength sun block after I mentioned smells make me nauseas. Be careful.
Avatar f tn Swimming is fine just use sun scree as a sun burn can cause your body temperature to rise and that isn't good for baby.
250701 tn?1320974765 For me it wasn't just the sun, but the combination of heat, sun and sweating that turned the rash into an ugly monster. Once it flares it's a bugger to calm back down. If you have any rash issues now, be very careful. If not, maybe try very short exposures and see - if you are willing to take the risk. Otherwise, wait until the end of treatment to soak up some rays.
