Guest guest Posted June 9, 2002 Report Share Posted June 9, 2002 I'd been on Doxyclycline 100 mg once a day for 13 days. The last dose was taken Friday. I stopped because of a yeast infection, despite my taking acidopihlus and eating plain yogurt with active cultures. (NB: The Doxy was taken about 3 hours before and after the yogurt and ANY supplements.) In past, I'd done fairly well with acidopihlus while on Tetracycline (though Tetracycline was much harder on my stomach than Doxy). Maybe it's because I used to take Probiotics acidopihlus and switched to a GNC brand -- after all, you never know what's really in those capsules. Anyway, I took a Diflucan 150 mg pill on Saturday and plan to take another one. It's knocked out the yeast almost entirely! Great. But my ocular rosacea has worsened without the Doxy. I'm considering going back on the Doxy, but this time using the Probiotics acidopihlus. Would the effects of the Diflucan last? Or perhaps I should try Minocin this time? Obviously a yeast infection is not something I want to risk, but the symptoms of the ocular rosacea had improved quite a bit with the Doxy (not 100%, but a lot), and now they're back! Any women have experience with this? Thanks trackgalcal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
