Product Details

Adoxa Tablets 100mg contain doxycycline, an antibiotic from the tetracycline class that is effective against a wide range of bacterial infections. Doxycycline works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, preventing bacteria from growing and spreading, which allows the body's immune system to eliminate the infection. It is widely used to treat respiratory tract infections, skin infections, urinary tract infections, and certain sexually transmitted infections (STIs), such as chlamydia.

Purposes

Adoxa Tablets are primarily used for:

• Treatment of Bacterial Infections: Effective against a variety of infections, including respiratory tract infections (e.g., bronchitis, pneumonia), skin infections (e.g., acne, rosacea), and urinary tract infections.
• Management of Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs): Commonly prescribed for the treatment of chlamydia and other STIs.
• Other Uses as Determined by a Doctor: May be used to treat other infections or conditions as advised by a healthcare provider, including certain types of eye infections and dental infections.

Warnings

Before starting Adoxa Tablets, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider, especially if you have a history of liver or kidney disease. Doxycycline may not be suitable for everyone, and careful consideration is needed, especially for pregnant or breastfeeding women.

Adverse Effects

While Adoxa Tablets are generally effective, some patients may experience side effects. Common side effects include:

• Gastrointestinal Issues: Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or abdominal pain.
• Skin Reactions: Increased sensitivity to sunlight (photosensitivity), rash, or itching.
• Other Effects: Headache, dizziness, or yeast infections in women.

If you experience severe side effects, such as difficulty breathing, severe allergic reactions, or significant changes in bowel habits, seek medical attention immediately.

Cautions

• Dosage Instructions: Take Adoxa Tablets exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Do not skip doses or stop taking the medication prematurely, even if you feel better.
• Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
• Children: Doxycycline should generally not be used in children under 8 years of age due to the risk of teeth discoloration and impaired bone growth.
• Medical Conditions: Inform your healthcare provider about any existing medical conditions, especially liver or kidney disease, before starting doxycycline.
• Interactions: Doxycycline may interact with certain medications, supplements, or foods. Discuss all medications and supplements you are taking with your healthcare provider to avoid potential interactions.
