Yes, it is a broad spectrum used to treat infections such as lyme disease.
While minocycline can be used to treat dogs with Lyme disease there is no evidence that it is as effective as doxycycline. Minocycline is being used as there is a shortage of doxycycline.

In most cases, yes. Lyme Disease is treated with anti-biotics. It is only in cases where the disease is left untreated for some time that is becomes more difficult to cure. There are also co-infections associated with Lyme disease. There can also be permanent nerve damage, arthritis from Lyme disease and other complications that require treatment even after the Lyme disease is in remission.
Yes, the active disease process can be stopped by antibiotics. The term chronic lyme disease is often used for patients where the disease is recurring. This is because the disease stays dormant or in remission once it is introduced to the bloodstream. It is still there but can remain inactive or dormant forever in some patients and then many patients have recurring Lyme for years. There are also many co-infections that are associated with Lyme Disease. One co-infection, Babesiosis, can not be treated at the same time that Lyme is being treated as they are treated differently. Therefore, when you treat one successfully, the other often reoccurs.
