The FDA classifies Doxycycline as a broad spectrum antibiotic, so it can be used to various types of bacterial infections, as deemed appropriate by your doctor.

Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

Is there anything else I can help with?
