Doxycycline has a high oral bioavailability, as it is almost completely absorbed in the stomach and proximal small intestine. [15] Unlike other tetracyclines, its absorption is not significantly affected by food or dairy intake. [15] However, co-administration of dairy products reduces the serum concentration of doxycycline by 20%. [15]
ATC code J01 Antibacterials for systemic use is a therapeutic subgroup of the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System, a system of alphanumeric codes developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) for the classification of drugs and other medical products.
Partial exceptions to these rules occur for doxycycline and minocycline, which may be taken with food (though not iron, antacids, or calcium supplements). Minocycline can be taken with dairy products because it does not chelate calcium as readily, although dairy products do decrease absorption of minocycline slightly. [39]
Antibiotics with less reliable but occasional (depending on isolate and subspecies) activity: occasionally penicillins including penicillin, ampicillin and ampicillin-sulbactam, amoxicillin and amoxicillin-clavulnate, and piperacillin-tazobactam (not all vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus isolates are resistant to penicillin and ampicillin)
The antibiotic doxycycline is effective in preventing leptospirosis infection. [7] Human vaccines are of limited usefulness; [15] vaccines for other animals are more widely available. [16] Treatment when infected is with antibiotics such as doxycycline, penicillin, or ceftriaxone. [8] The overall risk of death is 5–10%. [10]
