Avatar m tn m not sure did condoms have holes,For some reason I took doxycyclineVibramycin) for a week 8 days after having sex,Is it possible for me to get syphilis? Can taking doxycycline (Vibramycin) after 8 days block syphilis?I know 8 days is the window period,Does taking medication during the window period work?
Avatar m tn Doctor changes medicine after 5 days of Vibramycin to Doxycycline Hyclate 100MG for general bacterial infection. She says prostate might be infected even tho bacteria didn't at least initially show up on tests. I am worried. Hope it's not herpes - no skin lesions anywhere. It's weird that I'm being affected in the entire pelvic region. I wonder if it's some sort of prostatitis infection.
Avatar m tn Even if you were exposed and syphilis had started to take hold, the infection it would have been prevented or aborted by doxycycline (Vibramycin). In fact, that antibiotic is the the main second line drug when penicillin can't be given (e.g., in patients with severe penicillin allergy). Three weeks is too soon for an RPR; it takes 4-6 weeks to become positive. In your case, however, even if you had acquired syphilis, you will never have a positive blood test.
Avatar m tn Hi Dr. EWH / Dr. HHH, I have had a post earlier with Dr. EWH: http://www.medhelp.org/posts/STDs/Antibiotics-Interference-with-Syphilis-Test-Need-advice/show/1756859. Of course, don't get me wrong, I believe Dr. EWH. However, I cannot throw away my fear that I might have Syphilis. Apart from the antibiotics taken as mentioned in earlier post, I had Vibramycin at 94 days after the exposure, given for some pimples, dosage 5 days.
Avatar m tn After failing to fight off the cough myself I saw my local doctor 6 weeks ago, who prescribed Vibramycin-D (doxycycline) (1 weeks worth) because I’m allergic to penicillin. This has cleared up my infection the last two times I have taken it but this time I was still left with a persistent cough. The cough came on from my feeling that there’s water in my throat so I cough to bring it up (very little if no phlegm).
Avatar n tn Alcohol and the Effectiveness of Antibiotics Alcohol does not effect the effectiveness of the majority of antibiotics. However, antibiotics within the tetracycline group, including doxycycline, are hindered by alcohol. If alcohol is consumed while taking a tetraycycline antibiotic, the antibiotic may prove to be less effective at treating the bacteria or virus. A longer course of the antibiotic would thus be required.
Avatar m tn Based on the similarity of the Spanish/Argentine spelling with English, you undoubtedly were treated with doxycycline (trade name Vibramycin in the US). Ten days treatment with doxycycline is 100% effective against chlamydia; it is even more effective than azithromycin. So either the original diagnosis was wrong; or you also had something else that explains your current symptoms.
Avatar n tn I revisited my eye doctor, and he complained that I have very greasy skin and he prescribed me Dexamytrex (one application before sleep) Vibramycin (100mg for a 6 month period(1 water solluble tablet a day)....(apparently to reduce the greasiness). Now the main problem for me is...after reading up on the side effects of Vibramycin...should I really be taking this?And for THAT long a period? I'm a bit worried that my health would suffer more with that antibiotic, than actual do me any good.
Avatar f tn tetracycline, doxycycline (Vibramycin), Minocin (minocycline) Sulfa drugs - if near delivery (because they can increase the chance of serious newborn jaundice)
Avatar n tn As far as I can tell, I see no point? Doxycycline is also branded Vibramycin which is something I had prescribed in my late teens to combat acne and I never suffered any side effects then. Can anyone advise? I have no way of knowing if I carry this infection without paying to be tested, so I can't tell if this is my fault or not. Is this infection sexually transmitted exclusively? Could an infection have happened even if I am clean?
Avatar m tn Dear experts, i've been diagnosed with gonnorhea 8 days ago and treated with "ciproxin 500 , vibramycin 100" twice a day for both, now its my 8th day though symptoms didn't cure completely , the discharge is still on "white" and burning while urniation is being less but its noticable. do i have to swich to another treatment ???
Avatar m tn I thought I might have a UTI so I just waited 3 days and the burning got worse. I then went to see a doctor and he prescribed me Doxycycline (Vibramycin) 100 MG two times a day for seven days. The pain went down to a 1, after 4 days of using Doxycycline. Two days after using this medication I noticed a little red bump on the head of my penis and then two more on the shaft 3 days after using the medication. They did not burn, itch or pus, but they did scab over.
Avatar f tn Dear, I experience burn in urethera for now 7 months even without urination , at the begining it was sever after urination i took many antibiotics cipro 1 month, vibramycin 3 wks , zithro 2 courses , ceftriaxone and the severity became mild to moderate sometimes, after ejaculation i feel ok sometimes no, im now on septrin for 2 weeks i feel better . I had 3 hsv2 tests, 1st was low positive 1.
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?
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 f tn Can someone tell me what STDs can be treated with Doxycycline? Can you list all of them please? Thank you.
Avatar m tn I'm currently taking Doxycycline for anti-malaria reasons. I was wondering if it's unsafe to take for 5 consecutive months?
Avatar m tn I have been using doxycycline, I have had trouble urinating still I had oral sex about 3 months ago. First my penis was going numb and then it went away.
Avatar f tn I have horrible acne and was prescribed doxycycline. I take orthrotricyclen, does anyone know if they interfere?
Avatar m tn He prescribed to me vibramycin doxycycline mono hydrate for the acne and a cream for my thighs. I used the cream for 2 weeks and the spots on my thighs have nearly disappeared and only started taking the vibramicine 5 days ago. However after three days of taking the vibramicine, I noticed red marks on the lube of my ears (one ear more than the other) this in turn increased my level of stress drastically.
