IVFers: Did anyone have a bad reaction to
the doxycycline (sp) antibiotic?
I took it prior to my HSG in December and got violently ill (yes, I threw up in a limo with my boss  ). My nurse said to not take it, it was just precautionary. BUT - at that time, I did not eat before I took the med plus I was in a hot stuffy limo and I was nervous.
Has anyone else experience any bad side effects? Maybe it was just that I didn't eat before I took it?

No side effects here...but it does say to take with food as it can cause an upset stomach.

I never had any problems, but like Gerty said, make sure you take it with food.

Re: IVFers: Did anyone have a bad reaction to
YES!!! I actually had to take it after a culture swab came back showing a bacterial infection on my cervix when we first went to the RE. 20 minutes after I took the pill I threw up.
They were able to switch me to Zpack. Which is also what I took during my IVF cycles. DH did not have a reaction to the doxycycline. Let the nurse know you don't react well to it, and they will prescribe you something else.

No side effects here. You are supposed to eat with the meds.

I took it with breakfast and still had an awful reaction to it. It's a pretty strong antibotic.

No side effects, but I did take it after a big dinner and right before bed...DH has a terrible time with antibiotics and he took it at the same time and was fine.
