Doxycycline is evil

Does the nausea ever go away!?  I've been taking those darn antibiotics for 10 days now, thankfully only 2 more left.  But oh my gosh, this nausea will not go away.

  • OMG, it was was horrible for me, too. I ended up having to get a prescription for anti-nausea meds. That helped tremendously! Also, eating a little bit prior to taking helps some, too. Hope you feel better soon!

  • Ugghhh...I had to take Doxy when I had Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and it made me SO sick.

    You're almost done cutie! I hope you're feeling better soon.

  • Take it with food & it should help with the nausea... Also, be sure to wear sunscreen if out in the sun! Hang in there!
  • You are sooo right.  While I didn't have any nausea, I did break out in major hives and itched ALL over!  I don't even want to touch the stuff with a 10 foot pole!  I am sorry it has made you feel so bad.  :-(

    TTC since 3/07. IVF#1 = canceled. IVF#2 = 0% fertilization. IVF#3 = BFN. IVF#4 = c/p.  
    Moving forward with Adoption 2017!
  • I hate hate hate doxycycline!!! What really helps though is to take 2 probiotic pills (acidophelis) an after after every pill. It helps put the good bacteria back into your stomach which takes away the nausea. Also, lots of yogurt really helps me. You can get the probiotics at any health food store. Trust me, it really makes a difference. It also helps keep away pesky yeast infections that antibiotics can cause. 

    Feel better doll!

  • Definitely only take it with food.  I took Dox one morning before I had time to eat breakfast and within 20 minutes I was so nauseous.  If I take it with food, it has been better.  GL.
