The FDA expands the availability of generic Doxycycline
Doxycycline is one of the tetracycline antibiotics that was developed in the second half of XX century. It received its FDA approval in 1967. Being a little long in the tooth, it has passed out of patent protection so there are now generic versions on the market. That means if you are unlucky and contract one of the infections caused by a susceptible bacterium, you have a cheap cure available. So if you’re down with pneumonia, a respiratory or urinary tract infection, one of the sexually transmitted diseases or something less common, achieve for Doxycycline.
No matter what the status of a drug as patented or not, it’s for the FDA to regulate all manufacturing for distribution within the U.S. The good news for consumers is that this August has seen the FDA license the Lannett Company Inc. to produce the whole range of Doxycycline tablets from 50mg through 150mg. If you can’t find it in your local pharmacy, you guarantee to buy Doxycycline online.
