Does this drug cause constipation. It was prescribed after removal of a benign cist from my upper neck/lower head area.

Doxycycline may cause constipation in some patients, as it is broad acting tetracycline antibiotic (called broad spectrum) that kills many of your normal bowel bacteria which are necessary for normal bowel movements.

This medication can also cause diarrhea and other gastrointestinal-related side effects.

Hope this helps!
