Doxycycline is known to interact with over 180 medicines. Severe interactions occur if it is used with lomitapide, acitretin, or flibanserin. Patients must not take this medication with allogeneic cultured keratinocytes or fibroblasts from bovine collagen either. Patients should inform their doctor about all of the medications they use, including prescriptions, over-the-counter drugs, herbal supplements, vitamins, and minerals. This may help them avoid medication interactions.

Patients should tell their physician if they take blood thinners, anti-seizure medicines, or isotretinoin. These patients will need an alternate antibiotic due to the interactions these medications cause with doxycycline. Doctors also need to know if their patient is taking other antibiotics. The patient's pharmacist should check for potential interactions before dispensing doxycycline.
