I was on doxycycline treatment for rosacea. I was ok during the therapy, but right after I stopped with doxycycline rosacea flare up again. What should I do about it? Should I continue taking doxycycline?

Doxycyline and antibiotics from the tetracycline family are commonly prescribed as treatment for rosacea. As rosacea flare up right after you stopped with doxycycline, you should consider change of the therapy. Consult pharmacist or the dermatologist that prescribed you doxycycline what other treatments would be helpful. Good luck!
