Hi - I gained weight really quickly too, like the first week I was on it and normally I am really slim - I expect that it has an effect on your metabolism, also have a lot of the other side effects listed on here - this is not a good drug - a lot of anti-biotics arent! We need more natural methods!!

Hi skygirl, Have you recovered from the Doxycycline yet? I found that doxy. depleats the body of the B vitamins and also Vit. K and C. The website is www.umm.edu/altmed/articles/antibiotic-medications-000185.htm

I have been off the doxy for 5 days and still have the side effects. I hope to recover soon but the other posts say it will take at least one month.

God Bless, biofriend
