How Long Do The Side Effects Of Doxycycline Hyclate Last?
I was prescribed Doxycycline hyclate 100mg twice a day for a sinus infection. I took five doses and woke up at 3am with a severe heart burn. I stop taking this because the pain continued and it even hurt when I swallowed. The pain isn t as bad now but still there. How long do the side effects last

Hi,
Doxycycline can cause GI side effects like: abdominal pain or discomfort. Half-life of Doxycycline is only 12 hours or so. But you re-check the date of expiry of the strip.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
