My LLMD just gave me Doryx, told me to take 1 pill a day, w/ food. Has anyone had success with this? Should I be afraid of this drug? Any help is appreciated.
Currently I am taking 2 catsclaw pills a day, and something called bolouke once a day. Thanks in advance and please help....

Well, it's way easier for the body to handle than plain doxy. Not sure one pill a day is enough.. how many mg?? Be sure to take it with food... as with all antibiotics.
Boluoke is really good stuff!

Same med as doxy but easier on the stomach.

I took Doryx for over a year (300mg/day). I had started on doxy, and the Doryx was much easier on the stomach!
I took it twice a day with food, and never had any problems.
I've read that you should not lay down for 30-60 minutes after taking it, as it can aggravate the stomache.
Good luck!

Thanks so much everyone! It would be 150 mg a day. I appreciate all of your help....

If you want to get well.. ask for double that!

Dretta17 : I believe we are seeing the same dr.. she also gave me doryx @ 2 pills a day...1 is probably not enough..

Get to a LLMD!!! Post in Seeking a Doc and DO NOT go to a Infectious Disease dr if you want to get well. Please listen ..
