Photos Products: Adoxa Adoxa Tablet(Tablet 50 mg) [1 of 45] How To Use Take each dose with a full glass (8 oz or 240 ml) of water unless your doctor directs you otherwise. Do not lie down for 30 minutes after taking Adoxa. Take with food or milk if stomach upset occurs unless your doctor directs you otherwise. Take Adoxa 2-3 hours before or after taking any medications containing magnesium, aluminum, or calcium. Some examples include quinapril, didanosine, vitamins/minerals, and antacids. Sucralfate, bismuth subsalicylate, iron, and zinc are also included. These medications bind with doxycycline preventing its full absorption. The liquid suspension form of Adoxa must be shaken well before using. Antibiotics work best when the amount of medicine in your body is kept at a constant level. Do this by taking the medicine at evenly spaced intervals throughout the day and night. Continue to take Adoxa until the full prescribed amount is finished even if symptoms disappear after a few days. Stopping the medication too early may allow bacteria to continue to grow resulting in a relapse of the infection. Side Effects Adoxa may cause stomach upset, diarrhea, nausea, headache or vomiting. If these symptoms persist or worsen, notify your doctor. Very unlikely but report: stomach pain, yellowing of the eyes or skin, vision changes, mental changes. Doxycycline increases sensitivity to sunlight. In the unlikely event you have an allergic reaction to Adoxa, seek immediate medical attention.
