Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My ophthalmologist suggested I might take doxycycline because I have been battling eye tearing caused by dry ears for a long time. Nothing else has worked. The side effects of the drug look terrible. Is this drug typically prescribed for tearing eyes and should I even consider it?
