Has anyone significantly improved because of oral doxycycline ?

[Physician]

Doxycycline is often prescribed for MGD, in doses 25 mg. to 100 mg. once or twice a day. One study showed 25 mg. twice a day is adequate.

Since many are started on drops AND doxy at the same time, it's difficult to judge what part of improvement is due to doxy.

Question: Has anyone added Doxy to their regimen and found that Doxy seemed to be associated with substantial improvement ?

[Rebecca Petris]

I suggest you search the board on Doxycycline or look in the MGD treatment section. As with any other conventional (or unconventional for that matter) treatment, large numbers of people here are using or have used it and have reported their results. Like most things it helps some more than others.
