What Causes Vomiting After Taking Doxycycline?

I am having surgery on Thursday and took my first dose of doxycline. I ate a soufflé from Panera and within 15 minutes of taking the pill and the meal I was throwing up. I don t know if it was the pill or the food. Should I try to take the medicine tonight?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,
Nausea and vomiting is a common reaction that many people have with doxycycline. If it is important for you to take this medication, try eating a full meal and then taking the medicine after that. If you still have nausea or vomiting you will have to let your doctor know so that they can prescribe another medication.
