Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a specialized formulation of Doxycycline 100 mg/Biotin 5 mg Slow Release Acid Resistant Capsules. This unique formulation is designed to treat a range of conditions, including acne, rosacea, Lyme disease, chlamydia, and syphilis. The capsules are formulated with Methocel E4M, a controlled-release polymer, which ensures a gradual release of the encapsulated medication over an extended period of time. This slow release mechanism provides sustained therapeutic effects, reduces dosing frequency, and improves patient compliance, particularly for medications requiring a controlled and prolonged release profile.

Doxycycline is a potent antibiotic used to treat a variety of bacterial infections. Biotin, on the other hand, is a vitamin that supports the health of the skin, hair, and nails. The combination of doxycycline and biotin in this formulation provides a comprehensive treatment approach for these conditions, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the therapy.

However, it is crucial to note that this formulation should only be used under the supervision of a healthcare provider. If you have any queries about this formulation or how it can assist in treating your condition, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy.

Frequently Asked Questions

A small arrow pointing down

What is the purpose of the Methocel E4M in the Doxycycline 100 mg/Biotin 5 mg Slow Release Acid Resistant Capsules?

Methocel E4M is a type of controlled-release polymer. It is designed to release the encapsulated medication or active ingredient gradually over an extended period of time. This offers sustained therapeutic effects, reduced dosing frequency, and improved patient compliance for medications requiring a controlled and prolonged release profile.

What are the benefits of a slow release formulation?

How often should these capsules be taken?

Due to the slow release formulation, these capsules may not need to be taken as frequently as other forms of medication. However, the exact dosing schedule should be determined by a healthcare professional based on the individual patient's needs.

Are there any side effects associated with these capsules?

As with any medication, there may be potential side effects. These can vary depending on the individual patient and should be discussed with a healthcare professional.

Can these capsules be taken with other medications?

Whether these capsules can be taken with other medications will depend on the specific medications in question. It is important to discuss this with a healthcare professional to avoid potential interactions.

Who should not take these capsules?

These capsules may not be suitable for everyone. Individuals with certain health conditions or who are pregnant or breastfeeding should consult with a healthcare professional before taking these capsules.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
