Does doxycycline cause hair loss? I have been prescribed it (2 per day) for 10 days. Also is it better than azythromycin?

No, this antibiotic is not known to cause hair loss/alopecia, according to FDA reports, its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea.

As to being better, none are better than another, the appropriate antibiotic depends on the type and severity of the infection that's being treated.

Is there anything else I can help with?
