Consumer:Talk to your doctor before using doxycycline and methohexital. Alternative antibiotic therapy, if available, is generally recommended. You may need a doxycycline dose adjustment if you take both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
Professional:GENERALLY AVOID: Barbiturates may decrease serum concentrations and half-life of oral doxycycline to subtherapeutic levels. The mechanism may be induction of the hepatic metabolism of doxycycline.
MANAGEMENT: Other tetracyclines which are primarily renally excreted (e.g., tetracycline, demeclocycline, oxytetracycline) should be considered, as they are not expected to interact. If the patient must receive doxycycline, close monitoring for altered efficacy is recommended.
