More Information

Doxycycline should be taken once a day with a meal, plenty of water, and while sitting or standing. It is also critical to allow some time between taking the tablet and going to bed.

Benzoyl Peroxide gel (generic Acnecide) should be applied once or twice a day to clean, dry skin, depending on how your skin reacts to the treatment.

Doxycycline is an antibiotic that works by killing the bacteria responsible for acne. Because it is antibacterial, Benzoyl Peroxide gel also works to eliminate the bacteria that cause acne. Furthermore,

Keratin, a protein that is part of the skin’s structure, is broken down by Benzoyl Peroxide gel. This means it dissolves blackheads and whiteheads while also unclogging sebaceous glands.

This acne treatment combination is most effective for people who have papules (small red bumps), pustules (red bumps with white tips), and nodules or cysts (much larger lumps which are more likely to cause scarring).

Because both medications are antibacterial, they are an effective treatment for addressing the root cause of acne. Benzoyl Peroxide gel will also help to clear up the appearance of acne by reducing inflammation and redness.

Both Doxycycline and Benzoyl Peroxide gel are likely to make the skin more sensitive to sunlight; therefore, sunbeds and sunlamps should be avoided, and an SPF of at least 30 should be worn.

Doxycycline can cause nausea, abdominal pain, dizziness, and shortness of breath in some people. A mild burning sensation, redness, dryness, and peeling skin may occur when using Benzoyl Peroxide gel. It is also important to remember that Benzoyl Peroxide gel will bleach any hair or fabric it comes into contact with.

See the patient information leaflets for Doxycycline and Benzoyl Peroxide for more information on side effects and proper use.

While pregnant or breastfeeding, neither Doxycycline nor Benzoyl Peroxide gel should be used.
