Oral antibiotics such as Doryx (doxycycline) are not a "quick fix" for treating acne.
Usually a higher dose is prescribed at first and then as the acne improves the dosage is reduced. Treatment is usually continued for around 6 months and improvement may be seen after 1 to 2 months depending on severity of the acne and effectiveness of the doxycycline.
