Minocycline for Bacterial Infection Stops The Infection In It’s Track

December 1, 2022 | by DoctorSolve

Minocycline for bacterial infection (skin), which is available online from our Canadian pharmacy, is an antibiotic often prescribed to treat common bacterial infections, such as urinary tract infections, severe acne, gonorrhea, tick fever, chlamydia, and pneumonia 

Can Minocycline Treat Urinary Tract Infections?

YES, it does treat urinary tract infections.

Bacteria need protein to survive. By decreasing its ability to produce protein Minocycline ultimately kills the bacteria and stops the infection in its tracks.

Important Information About Minocycline for Bacterial Infection

This drug cannot be used if you are pregnant as it could cause harm to your unborn baby. If you should become pregnant during treatment, tell your doctor and discuss other options.

Do not take it if you are nursing. Minocycline passes into breast milk and may affect bone and tooth development in your nursing baby. Your doctor will need to know if you are nursing.

Birth control pills can become less effective while using Minocycline. To prevent pregnancy while taking Minocycline (and other antibiotics) always use the second method of birth control, such as a condom.

Iron supplements, multivitamins, calcium supplements, antacids, and laxatives should not be taken within 2 hours before or after your Minocycline dose. These products can make minocycline less effective.

What Should I Discuss with My Doctor?

Before using this drug tell your doctor if you are allergic to minocycline, or to similar medicines such as demeclocycline, doxycycline, or tetracycline. Your doctor will also need to know: if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding; if you are taking any prescription medicines, nonprescription medicines, herbal preparations, or dietary supplements; if you have any other medical conditions, such as liver or kidney disease.
