Minocycline works better when taken on an empty stomach. Minocycline is typically taken one to two hours from eating, every 12 hours. Minocycline should be taken with a full glass of water unless your doctor has instructed otherwise. If you feel that your stomach gets upset with this medication, you should start taking it with food or milk.

When you are taking the capsule version of the medication, take the capsule whole. After taking the Minocycline, do not lay down for at least 10 minutes. It is best to avoid taking it before going to bed.

Minocycline should be taken 2 to 3 hours before or after any medicine that contains aluminium, calcium, magnesium, iron, or zinc. These products can bind to minocycline and prevent the body from fully absorbing it.

Minocycline should be taken at least once every twelve hours. It is best to take minocycline 1 to 2 hours after eating.

Your medical condition and response to treatment will determine the dosage and duration of Minocycline treatment.

It may, in rare cases, cause a severe intestinal condition due to a type of resistant bacteria during the treatment or weeks after the treatment has stopped. Disclose your doctor of the persistent diarrhoea, stomach pain, or blood/mucus in your stool.

Disclose your doctor of any severe allergic reaction, including persistent fever, unusual lymph node swelling, itching or swelling, rash, difficulty breathing, and severe dizziness, and any other illness or condition that you have or had in the past. You should also disclose if you are pregnant, planning to get pregnant or breastfeeding.
