General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

In my opinion the symptoms seem to be related to side effects of Doxycycline intake. I recommend using over the counter option like Imodium for the diarrhea.

I also recommend using a gastro protector such as Ranitidine and daily probiotics. I suggest drinking liquids and eating a plain diet.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
