✔️ Dosage & Administration of Minocin 100
  • Routine antibiotic use: 200 mg daily in divided doses.
  • Acne: 50 mg twice daily for at least 6 weeks.
  • Gonorrhea:
    • Males: 200 mg initially, followed by 100 mg every 12 hours for at least 4 days. Post-therapy cultures should be taken within 2-3 days.
    • Females: May require longer therapy.
  • Prophylaxis of asymptomatic meningococcal carriers: 100 mg twice daily for 5 days, followed by treatment with rifampicin.

Take the medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow the tablet whole without chewing, crushing, or breaking it. Minocin 100 may be taken with or without food, preferably at a fixed time daily.

✔️ Interaction
  • Anticoagulants: Tetracyclines depress plasma prothrombin activity. Reduced doses of anticoagulants may be necessary.
  • ACE inhibitors, antacids, and adsorbents: Tetracyclines bind to di-/tri-valent cations, impairing absorption. Maximize dosage separation.
  • Diuretics: May aggravate nephrotoxicity.
  • Antibacterials: Do not use Minocin with penicillins.
  • Ergotamine and ergometrine: Increased risk of ergotism.
  • Oral contraceptives: Both can induce hyperpigmentation.
  • Retinoids: Avoid isotretinoin shortly before, during, and after minocycline therapy.
✔️ Contraindications
  • Hypersensitivity to tetracyclines
  • Systemic lupus erythematosus
  • Pregnancy and lactation
  • Complete renal failure
  • Children under 12 years
✔️ Pregnancy & Lactation

Minocycline is contraindicated during pregnancy and lactation.

Tetracyclines are also found in breast milk and may cause permanent tooth discoloration in the infant.

✔️ Precautions & Warnings
  • Breathing difficulties: Discontinue use and seek medical advice if symptoms develop.
  • Pediatric population: Not recommended for children under 12 due to the risk of tooth discoloration and enamel hypoplasia.
  • Hepatic impairment: Use with caution in patients with hepatic dysfunction.
  • Auto-immune disorders: Discontinue if signs of SLE or hepatotoxicity appear.
