I have a doxycycline prescription for Acne, what happens if I were to take an extra pill daily?

I currently take 500mg of doxycycline everyday (one pill at breakfast, one at dinner) to treat my acne. It's moderate acne, but not awful, but very persistent and seems to be getting worse and spreading. What would happen if say, maybe I slipped in an extra pill everyday at lunch, so it would boost me up to 750mg? Would that potentially have any harmful consequences or would it do me any good?I have a doxycycline prescription for Acne, what happens if I were to take an extra pill daily?
Acne usually gets worse before it gets better so if it has been less than a week of it getting worse, leave it alone.





Also, the body will build tolerance to antibiotics so its important to take it as directed. Honestly, it wont hurt to taka an extra but I do for the possibility of stomach upset or other gastrointestinal symptoms. You only need doxy TWICE daily because of its half life...so just stick to your current regimen.I have a doxycycline prescription for Acne, what happens if I were to take an extra pill daily?
Why would you do that? Talk to your dermatologist. They prescribed you the amount they think you should take and you may end up with a negative consequence if you're taking more medicine that you're supposed to.
I would never take more than prescribed by your doctor since this is a very strong antibiotoic which can damage your liver if misused.
That can be VERY dangerous! Dont do it! Take your proper dosage.
