Taking Doxycyline Monohydrate. What Is Your Opinion On This?
I am takinq two 100 mg day of doxycyline monohydrate. After 2 weeks I seem to have less appetite,feel more tired, and a little diarrhea, it is for a rosacea condition for rid of it. Would it be possible with satisfactory results so cut down to one pill per day? With a full glass of water after pill I seem to be losing some sleep after getting up two or three times a night.
