Doxy SL is a proven, effective antibiotic for bacterial acne. It contains a combination of doxycycline and lactobacillus (a probiotic). Both of which work together to treat your acne and calm inflammation.
It’s a tablet treatment, and it’s often recommended if you have bacterial acne and creams or gels haven’t worked to clear it.
Doxy SL is a type of antibiotic that contains a combination of doxycycline and lactobacillus (a probiotic). Together, these two active ingredients work by targeting the acne- causing bacteria and stopping it from growing.
Doxy SL also aids in the treatment of acne by reducing inflammation. By preventing the production and release of inflammatory cells, it limits inflammation at its source, which is a key contributing factor to bacterial acne.
Doxy SL comes in a fixed combination dose of 100mg of doxycycline and lactobacillus (5 billion spores). It is best to take the dose recommended by your doctor. Even if your acne clears up, do not stop taking the medication without speaking to your doctor.
Your doctor may prescribe other topical ointments like gel or creams to apply on the affected areas alongside a dose of Doxy SL.

Doxy SL is usually quickly absorbed, and starts to take effect within 2-4 hours of taking itthe tablet. But although it starts fighting the bacteria quickly, it can take some time for your symptoms to improve.
Your doctor will prescribe the treatment time with Doxy SL based on how severe your acne is. However, in general, it can take anywhere between 6-12 weeks for you to see any noticeable results.
If you forget to take Doxy SL at your usual time, just take it as soon as you remember. If it’s less than twelve hours until your next capsule, skip the missed dose and carry on as normal. Don’t take twice your normal dose to make up for missing a capsule.
If you take too much Doxy SL, seek medical attention straight away. Take the packaging of the medication with you so they can see what you’ve taken and how much. If you’ve only taken one extra capsule, it’s unlikely to cause you many problems. Even so, you should still make sure you seek help if you have any worrying symptoms.
