I m taking 100mg 2x /day doxycycline hyclate for a presumed possible prostate inflamation. How worried should I be about the protein synthesis side-effects, etc.? I ve had a couple headaches - which normally I almost never get, and generally feel lousy. I started the regime 8 days ago...
HelloThanks for query. You have been taking Doxycycline for presumed Prostate Infection. It is advisable not to take any antibiotics unless you have established positive evidence of infection. Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical assessment and get following basic test done to confirm Diagnosis of Prostatitis1) Semen Examination and Semen Culture. Since prostatitis takes long time to get cured one has to take antibiotics for 6-8 weeks.Hence, I suggest you to continue taking it only after doing Semen culture and confirmed diagnosis.
