ABSTRACT:The use of doxycycline as an antibiotic has been associated with an increased incidence of bone and cardiovascular disease, although the effect on risk of fracture and disability has not been studied. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between use of doxycycline and cardiovascular events and disability in patients taking antineoplastic agents.
INTRODUCTION: Doxycycline is a broad-spectrum antibiotic used for the treatment of infections caused by susceptible organisms. Doxycycline is widely used to treat a wide range of infections, including acne, bronchitis, and urinary tract infections. In addition, doxycycline is often prescribed for the treatment of anthrax, plague, and other infections. The use of doxycycline for the treatment of bacterial infections has been reported to have an increased risk of developing bone and cardiovascular disease.1,2,3,4-Tetracyclines are also commonly used in the treatment of infections such as pneumonia and gonorrhea. However, the effects on bone and cardiovascular disease have not been studied in patients taking doxycycline.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between use of doxycycline and cardiovascular events and disability in patients taking antineoplastic agents.
Objective:To evaluate the risk of developing bone and cardiovascular disease with the use of doxycycline.
Design:The retrospective review of patients from the national reference database for osteoporosis prevention from 1999 to 2011.
Setting:Healthcare facilities in the Republic of Korea.
Patients:Adults with a recent history of cardiovascular events and fractures.
Interventions:The study was carried out at four study sites in Korea:
Study Design:This retrospective observational study was conducted from January 1, 1999, through June 30, 2011. The study population was patients who had a recent cardiovascular event or a fracture or bone fracture, were using either doxycycline or hyaluronic acid or had an active osteoporosis diagnosis. The study was performed in accordance with the ethical principles set out by the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by the ethics committee of the Institute of Medicine (IRB No: IRB-MREC-H039-20).
Study Population: Adults with a recent history of cardiovascular events and a fracture or bone fracture who had been prescribed doxycycline or hyaluronic acid for the treatment of a fracture, had an active osteoporosis diagnosis, or had an active osteoporosis diagnosis. The study population included women who had a recent cardiovascular event or a fracture. Patients who had an active osteoporosis diagnosis, had a history of cardiovascular events (e.g., myocardial infarction), or had an active osteoporosis diagnosis were eligible to participate. The study period was from the time of the first documented cardiovascular event until the date of the first documented bone fracture or until the first documented fracture. This study was performed in accordance with the ethical principles set out by the Declaration of Helsinki. Patients who had an active osteoporosis diagnosis, who had a history of cardiovascular events, or had an active osteoporosis diagnosis were eligible to participate. Patients who had a history of cardiovascular events, who had a history of cardiovascular events, or had an active osteoporosis diagnosis were excluded from the study.
Malaria is a serious tropical disease spread by mosquitoes. If it isn’t diagnosed and treated promptly, it can be fatal.
A single mosquito bite is all it takes for someone to become infected.
Symptoms of malaria
It’s important to be aware of the symptoms of malaria if you’re travelling to areas where there’s a high risk of the disease. Symptoms include:
a high temperature (fever) sweats and chills headaches vomiting muscle pains diarrhoea Symptoms usually appear between 7 and 18 days after becoming infected, but in some cases the symptoms may not appear for up to a year, or occasionally even longer.
When to seek medical attention
Seek medical help immediately if you develop symptoms of malaria during or after a visit to an area where the disease is found.
Malaria risk areas
Malaria is found in more than 100 countries, mainly in tropical regions of the world, including:
large areas of Africa and Asia Central and South America Haiti and the Dominican Republic parts of the Middle East some Pacific islands
Thehas more information about the risk of malaria in specific countries.
Preventing malaria
Many cases of malaria can be avoided. An easy way to remember is the ABCD approach to prevention:
Awareness of risk – find out whether you’re at risk of getting malaria before travelling Bite prevention – avoid mosquito bites by using insect repellent, covering your arms and legs, and using an insecticide-treated mosquito net Check whether you need to take malaria prevention tablets – if you do, make sure you take the right antimalarial tablets at the right dose, and finish the course Diagnosis – seek immediate medical advice if you develop malaria symptoms, as long as up to a year after you return from travelling
Side effects
Like all medicines, doxycycline can cause side effects, although not everyone gets them.
Common side effects These common side effects happen in around 1 in 10 people. Keep taking the medicine, but talk to your doctor or pharmacist if these side effects bother you or don’t go away:
a headache feeling sick or vomiting being sensitive to sunlight Serious side effects Serious side effects are rare and happen in less than 1 in 1,000 people.
Call a doctor straight away if you get:
Bruising or bleeding you can’t explain (including nosebleeds), a sore throat, a high temperature (38C or above) and you feel tired or generally unwell – these can be signs of blood problems.
Severe diarrhoea (perhaps with stomach cramps) that contains blood or mucus, or lasts longer than 4 days ringing or buzzing in your ears
Serious skin reactions or rashes, including irregular, round red patches, peeling, blisters, skin ulcers, or swelling of the skin that looks like burns – these could be signs of a rare reaction to the medicine called Stevens-Johnson Syndrome
Yellow skin or the whites of your eyes go yellow – this could be a sign of liver problems joint or muscle pain that has started since you began taking doxycycline
Headache, vomiting and problems with your vision – these could be signs of pressure around your brain (intracranial hypertension)
A fingernail coming away from its base – this could be a reaction to sunlight called photo-onycholysis
A sore or swollen mouth, lips or tongue
Severe pain in your tummy, with or without bloody diarrhoea, feeling sick and being sick – these can be signs of pancreatitis difficulty or pain when you swallow, a sore throat, acid reflux, a smaller appetite or chest pain which gets worse when you eat – these could be signs of an inflamed food pipe (oesophagitis) or oesophageal ulcer
Serious allergic reactions
Allergic reactions to doxycycline are common and occur in more than 1 in 100 people.
These are not all the side effects of doxycycline.
You can report any suspected side effect to the UK.

Yes, Doxycycline capsules can be effective in treating acne. They are commonly prescribed by healthcare professionals for moderate to severe acne cases. Doxycycline is an antibiotic that works by reducing inflammation and controlling the growth of bacteria associated with acne.
Doxycycline helps to improve acne symptoms by:
Reducing inflammation: Doxycycline has anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce the redness, swelling, and tenderness associated with acne.
Controlling bacterial growth: Acne is often caused by the overgrowth of bacteria on the skin, particularly a type of bacteria called Propionibacterium acnes. Doxycycline works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, thereby controlling the growth and spread of these bacteria.
Regulating oil production: Doxycycline can also help regulate sebum (oil) production in the skin, which is a contributing factor in the development of acne.
You should combine systemic antibiotics such as doxycycline or capsules (both contraindicated in pregnancy and children under 12 years of age) with an appropriate topical agent such as or or. You should ideally continue treatment for 3 months.
Your doctor may start you on a course of doxycycline or capsules (both either i.p. or whilst taking Doxycycline) and gradually increase your dose.The dose you should take may depend on the type of acne you have and may also be used to guide the right balance with your individual health goals. Do not increase your dose or take doxycycline more often than your doctor hasicking recommended.Follow your doctor's instructions when taking Doxycycline if you have or if you have any allergy or liver problems. Do not take Doxycycline with iron, alcohol, or warfarin if you have had stroke or heart attack in the last 6 months. Doxycycline has a mild risk of side effects, although they are rare.
Doxycycline is not recommended for use in children under 12 years of age.
