About DOXYCYCLINE(100MG) + LACTOBACILLUS(60M)

Introduction

This medicine contains Doxycycline (100mg), an antibiotic, combined with Lactobacillus (60 million), a beneficial probiotic. Doxycycline fights bacterial infections while Lactobacillus helps maintain healthy gut bacteria that may be affected during antibiotic treatment. This combination is designed to treat infections while reducing digestive side effects commonly associated with antibiotics.

Uses

This combination is prescribed for treating various bacterial infections including respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, skin and soft tissue infections, sexually transmitted infections, and certain eye infections. The Lactobacillus component helps prevent antibiotic-associated diarrhea and maintains intestinal health during treatment. It may also be used for acne, dental infections, and other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Benefits

The antibiotic component effectively eliminates harmful bacteria causing infections, helping you recover faster. The probiotic Lactobacillus helps maintain the natural balance of good bacteria in your digestive system, reducing stomach upset and diarrhea often seen with antibiotic use. This combination approach supports both infection treatment and digestive comfort, potentially improving treatment tolerance and compliance.

Side effects

Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, loss of appetite, and mild diarrhea. Some people may experience headache, dizziness, or skin sensitivity to sunlight. Rarely, severe allergic reactions, severe diarrhea, or liver problems may occur. Most side effects are mild and temporary. Contact your doctor if side effects persist or worsen, or if you develop severe stomach pain, persistent diarrhea, or yellowing of skin/eyes.

How to use

Take this medicine exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Swallow the capsule/tablet whole with a full glass of water while sitting or standing upright. It can be taken with or without food, but taking it with food may reduce stomach upset. Avoid lying down for at least 30 minutes after taking the dose. Do not take with milk, dairy products, or antacids as they reduce absorption. Complete the full course even if you feel better.

How it works

Doxycycline is a tetracycline antibiotic that works by preventing bacteria from producing proteins essential for their growth and reproduction, ultimately killing the bacteria causing the infection. Lactobacillus is a probiotic that introduces beneficial live bacteria into your digestive system, helping restore and maintain the natural balance of intestinal flora that antibiotics may disrupt, thereby supporting digestive health during antibiotic therapy.

Safety advice

Avoid alcohol as it may increase side effects and reduce effectiveness. Use effective contraception during treatment as it may reduce birth control pill effectiveness. Not recommended during pregnancy (especially second and third trimesters) or breastfeeding unless specifically advised by your doctor. Avoid prolonged sun exposure and use sunscreen as this medicine increases sun sensitivity. Inform your doctor about kidney or liver problems. May cause dizziness; be cautious while driving. Complete blood tests may be needed for long-term use.
