"This is my last day of the 10-day course for a sinus infection, and I am taking it to a lab to get it analyzed. Something must be illegal with this drug that it is prescribed so easily without specific instructions. I have been sick all week. Sinusitis and the effects of this drug have kept me in bed most of the week. I got ill on a weekend and had to go to one of those 'clinics.' Next time, I will go to the E.R. I lost an entire week of my life. i.e., shoulder/neck pain, sore throat, 'something in my eye,' dryness, light-headedness, lethargy, loss of appetite, dry nose, restless sleep, yet sleep all day, nausea, feeling bloated, some diarrhea, and feeling mentally disconnected. I was not a happy camper. And now, on the 10th day, I still have an infection, yellow mucus."

"Have been taking this med now for the past 8 days for an acute sinusitis infection and paid strict attention to the pharmacist's instructions. YOU MUST DRINK A FULL GLASS OF WATER after you've taken it. Don't disregard these rules, or you will have severe side effects. Otherwise, I'm hoping this time doxy will clear it up as I was on amoxy, and that didn't. This infection keeps repeating because of two bouts of pneumonia, and I'm sure residual infection wasn't properly cleared up then. This time I'm hoping with 10 days of the Doxy it will be so far so good, BUT PAY ATTENTION TO THE FOOD AND DRINK ON THIS MED."

"I am allergic to penicillin and related drugs, so my options mostly relate to tetracycline and its relations. For me, that has been doxycycline. I have used it for respiratory and sinus/gum infections. This time, I developed severe pain in the sinuses, significant discharge of nasty mucus with coughing, body aches, and bilateral ear pain resulting in dizziness. This occurred 3 days after I returned from a 14-day trip through the Southwestern states. The doctor did a full exam. Temperatures were in 99.9 to 101.7 at first. It took about 4-5 days at a dose of 100x2 per day, but it is working. I still have aches, and my ears are still blocked somewhat with some dizziness, but hoping that will clear. Tomorrow is day 7. The doctor will check in at day 10. So far, so good."

"Dr. gave me doxy hyclate, and within 1 hour, I was really ill, with diarrhea, severe headache, shaking, and palpitations. I was ready to call 911. Horrible drug - do not take."
