CARBAMAZEPINE AND TETRACYCLINES
The serum levels of doxycycline are reduced and may fall below the accepted therapeutic minimum in patients taking carbamazepine long-term.
It has been suggested that the doxycycline dosage could be doubled to counteract this interaction. Tetracycline, oxytetracycline and chlortetracycline appear not to interact and may therefore be suitable alternatives.
