Re: TO MONA,I am taking doxy for more a year and no problem

Hi Mona

I take doxy 100 mg and Minocin 100 g a day. Actually I take doxy around noon and

minocin at night. Doxy makes my stomch upset . so I take it with some snack. You

can take doxy with food. If you take mulivitamin there should be at least two

hours gap between

them. I had horrible stomachache the first 3 months of taking minocin. My

stomach got used to it after a while. Brand name minocin is better on my stomach

than the generic.

of course antibiotic messes up our stomach. I think the antibiotics have

irritated your stomach that's why you cann't tolerate lactose.

I have stopped taking dairy products since two years ago. I don't know if I

have allergy to dairies. many people and holistic doctors believe dairies are

allergen.

I am going to try SERRAPEPTASE. It is an enzyme that decrease

inflammation. Email me in 2-3 weeks to tell you if it is effective.

Soheila-what are the doses that you are on for both the doxy and minocin? When I

needed to be on doxy for a tick bite, I was taken off the minocin, for fear that

both at the same time would mess up my already-messed up stomach. Within two

weeks of being off minocin, my reactive arthritis was so horrible, that I

started taking the minocin without telling the doctors. I have found that since

the time I took the two antibiotics together, I am lactose intolerant. Weird?

I think the issue with Doxy (and all of the antibiotics and other meds) is

again, each of us reacts differently.

I was on Doxy for a year several yrs ago but it wasn't half as effective as

the Minocin so my doc put me back on that. Nothing negative happened

though, but it's a good and wise heads up for all of us to realize some of us

might be adversely affected.

thanks,
