Iron products, antacids and milk should not be taken at the same time as a dose of tetracycline. You can take the medication an hour before you ingest vitamins containing iron, antacids or milk or you can take the medication 2 hours after you ingest these items.
To prepare a tetracycline stock solution, you would weigh out the appropriate amount of tetracycline powder and dissolve it in a suitable solvent, such as sterile water or ethanol. The concentration of the stock solution will depend on your experimental needs, but typically a concentration of 10-50 mg/ml is common. Remember to sterile filter the solution before storing it in aliquots at -20°C to prevent degradation.
Some of the conditions that doxycycline is used to treat, like acne, can also be treated by over the counter medications. There are no over the counter medicines that would replicate the antibacterial action so if you were prescribed doxycycline for a serious infection there is no over the counter alternative.
nope. Doxycycline is an antibiotic, which is from the class of Tetracyclines. They are broad spectrum antibiotics which mostly have to avoid dairy products, antacids, aluminium, calcium, iron, magnesium and zinc salts to prevent poor absorption of Tetracyclines (except Doxycycline & Minocycline for dairy products are unaffected) other examples includes: Democlocycline, Minocycline, Tigecycline
No, the flu, if you mean it as influenza and not just another name for a common cold, is a virus. Tetracycline is used for bacterial infections. It would not have an effect on influenza. The best treatment for the flu is to prevent it with a vaccine, but there are also drugs out there that have been proven somewhat beneficial for the treatment of flu. This would be a drug like oseltamivir (tamiflu). An important distinction here is that many people get sick and just say they have the flu, when in reality they just have some random viral or bacterial upper respiratory infection. To be certain one has the flu, he/she would need to be tested specifically for a strain of the influenza virus.
No, food in your stomach only delays the absorption of alcohol into the bloodstream. A full stomach doesn't prevent the effects of alcohol or intoxication.
No, hot spices will not prevent absorption of bacteria from food, nor will it prevent bacteria from growing on the food.
No. The stomach does not absorb anything. The above answer is wrong. The stomach is responsible for absorption of alcohol in particular, as well as a fair quantity of the drug aspirin. The majority of aspirin is absorbed in the duodenum of the small intestines, but some is taken in by the stomach.
Having food in your stomach can slow down the absorption of alcohol into your bloodstream, as it takes longer for the alcohol to reach your small intestine where most absorption occurs. However, it does not prevent alcohol absorption entirely and having food in your stomach does not guarantee you will not get intoxicated. Drinking in moderation is the best way to stay safe when consuming alcohol.
There are actually several common antibiotic targets. However, the three most common are the inhibition of cell wall synthesis (penicillins, cephalosporins), inhibition of protein synthesis (macrolides, tetracycline), and the inhibition of replication and transcription, (fluoroquinolones rifampin).

i don't think that is possible y?
It's an antibiotic that is used to treat and prevent many types of infections. I once had a cyst removed from my face and the dermotologist prescribed it to help the wound heal. The wound healed very quickly and left no scars. It's an antibiotic, used to treat bacterial infections.Tetracycline is a broad spectrum antibiotic.Tetracycline is a broad spectrum polyketide antibiotic produced by the streptomyces genus of actinobacteria indicated for use against many bacterial infections.
