Does Minocycline Causes Bouts Of Nausea And Diarrhea?

my 29 y/o daughter started a once a day, low dose minocycline treatment for adult cystic acne 5 days ago. for the last 3 days she's experienced bouts of nausea and diarrhea, once a day, about 10-12 hours after taking the prescribed dosage. she called the dermatologist the first time it happened but he wasn't concerned. needless to say, I am concerned. can this be dangerous?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can understand the problem, this could be gastritis must have been developed because of the drug that she is taking, if I would be her doctor then I would treat her with the following medicine
1) Tab Omeprazole 40 mg once in day
2) Tab Domeperidone 30 mg once in day
these drug will reduce the gastritis, hope this information helps you, bye.
