Drug Uses
Use Tetracycline to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly
suspected to be caused by susceptible bacteria.
How Taken
The usual daily dose is 1g to 2g. Your doctor may increase the dosage in
case of severe infections. You should continue therapy for at least 24 to
48 hours after the symptoms and fever have subsided.
Warnings/Precautions
Talk to your physician before taking this medicine if you are hypersensitive
to tetracyclines. Using Tetracycline in the absence of a proven or strongly
suspected bacterial infection or a prophylactic indication is unlikely to
provide benefit and increases the risk of the development of drug-resistant
bacteria.
Missed Dose
If you skip doses or do not complete the full course of therapy, you may
risk a decrease in the effectiveness of the immediate treatment. Also there
is a chance that bacteria will develop resistance and will not be treatable
by Tetracycline or other antibacterial drugs in the future.
Possible Side Effects
Side effects you may experience may include: anorexia, epigastric distress,
nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, bulky loose stools, stomatitis, sore throat,
glossitis, black hairy tongue, dysphagia, hoarseness, enterocolitis, and
inflammatory lesions (with candidal overgrowth) in the anogenital region.
Storage
Store the tablets at room temperature; avoid excessive heat. Dispense in
tight, light-resistant containers. Keep out of the reach of children.
Overdose
In case of overdosage, seek emergency medical attention.
More Information
If you are undergoing long-term therapy, periodic laboratory evaluation of
organ system function, including renal, hepatic, and hematopoietic systems,
should be performed.
