Effectiveness
How Vibramycin Affects PatientsDoxycycline is a type of medication called a tetracycline, which is designed to stop the growth of bacteria. It works by blocking the protein production of the bacteria, preventing it from continuing to spread. Doxycycline is also lipophilic and can penetrate the cell walls of bacteria. This makes it effective in treating a wide range of bacterial infections. Additionally, it has been shown to have anti-parasitic and anti-inflammatory effects, and has been used to treat certain skin conditions such as bullous dermatoses and rosacea.
How Vibramycin works in the bodyDoxycycline stops bacteria from being able to make proteins they need to survive. It works by preventing an amino acid-carrying molecule from binding to the ribosome, a component of bacterial cells. This blocks the production of essential proteins and eventually kills the bacteria. Doxycycline also reduces inflammation by blocking the movement of white blood cells and stopping an enzyme that produces a chemical messenger that causes inflammation.
When to interrupt dosage
The suggested dosage of Vibramycin is reliant upon the determined condition, including Urethritis, Chlamydia trachomatis and Respiratory Tract Infections. The measure of dosage varies, as per the technique of delivery (e.g. Capsule or Syrup - Oral) listed in the table beneath.Condition

Vibramycin Reviews: What are patients saying about Vibramycin?
5Patient Review
5/5/2019 I've been using this for two years to great success. It's the only thing that has worked on my acne cysts. Just remember to take it with food, or you'll be incredibly nauseous.
5Patient Review
5/5/2019 I've been using this medication for two years to help with my acne. It's been effective in keeping the painful cysts away, as long as I don't miss a dose. The pill can make you nauseous if you don't take it with food. Otherwise, no problems here!
3.7Patient Review
2/9/2021 Worked well, but I experienced some pretty severe psychological side effects. On day two of the treatment, I had a panic attack in the car and begged my wife to crash and kill me. We knew it was the doxycycline that caused it, so I stayed home with her. Suicide ideation can be random while taking this medication, so self-talk and staying busy help a lot. I will never go back on anything in the tetracycline family again; this is the worst experience I've ever had with a medication.
3.7Patient Review
2/9/2021 Worked well, though I did experience some pretty severe psychological side effects. On day two, I had a panic attack so bad that I was screaming for my wife to crash the car and kill me. We knew it was from the doxycycline, so luckily I stayed home with her that day. If you're considering this medication, just be aware that thoughts of suicide can be a random side effect while taking it. Talk to your doctor about whether or not this is the right choice for you.
3Patient Review
6/27/2022 While this did lower my infection symptoms, I unfortunately experienced very intense anxiety and depression as a result. These thoughts only cleared up about ten days after I stopped taking the medication. If possible, avoid tetracycline medications altogether.

8/14/2022 I've been taking this medication for a possible prostate infection. The stomach pain has been manageable, however I have had terrible insomnia as a result. I'm sweating and hot at night, and somewhat congested during the day. It's Day 6, and I haven't slept more than 5 hours total since starting this treatment.
2.7Patient Review
5/26/2022 My skin cleared up for the first two weeks, but I experienced dryness and peeling as well. Around the second or third week, I started having heart palpitations and feeling nauseous and anxious. Overall, not a great experience.
2.7Patient Review
8/14/2022 I was taking this medication for a possible prostate bacterial infection. Though the stomach pain has been tolerable, I have had severe insomnia. I seem to be hot and sweating at night and somewhat congested. I am on day 6 and I have not slept more than 5 hours on any day. Cannot get to sleep at all!
2.3Patient Review
4/14/2022 I've been feeling terrible since taking this pill. They say to take it with no dairy and on an empty stomach, which is already inconvenient. I've been dizzy and sick for three days now, and it's all thanks to this medication that was supposed to help treat a bacterial infection in my bladder.
2.3Patient Review
10/27/2022 Unfortunately, this medication had some pretty severe and dangerous side effects for my teenager. We saw a significant increase in aggressive behaviors, which then led to suicidal thoughts and dreams. However, we stopped the medication and those symptoms subsided relatively quickly.
2.3Patient Review
10/27/2022 I unfortunately found that this medication caused my teen to become aggressive, to the point of suicidal ideation. Thankfully, once we stopped the medication, these behaviors and thoughts subsided.
2.3Patient Review
4/14/2022 I've been feeling really awful since starting this medication. I get vertigo and nauseous every time I take it, even though I follow the instructions to the letter. It's been three days now and I'm no better off.
2Patient Review
4/25/2018 I would stay away from this medication, as it caused me a lot of anxiety and depression. A simple Google search will show you that I'm far from the only one who experienced these negative effects.
2Patient Review
1/27/2022 I had some pretty severe side effects from this medication, including chills, headaches, fatigue, and muscle pain. I stopped taking it after just two days because I felt worse than before I started.
2Patient Review
11/1/2022 I only took this for eight days because the side effects were so bad. I felt nauseous, had headaches and fatigue, but also couldn't sleep. On top of all that, my hair started falling out in clumps. I would not recommend this medication to anyone.
2Patient Review
11/1/2022 I only made it through eight days of taking this medication because the side effects were so severe. I felt nauseous, had headaches and fatigue, but also insomnia and then on day seven my hair started shedding quite severely. Additionally, I felt unlike myself: sad and depressed.
2Patient Review
4/25/2018 I would stay away from this medication, as it caused me severe anxiety and depression. If you're considering taking it, please look up "doxycycline depression" to get an idea of the potential side effects.
