Buy a broad-spectrum tetracycline-class antibiotic
Doxycycline is a semisynthetic tetracycline-class antibiotic with a wide spectrum of action, it is used to treat infectious diseases of bacterial etiology.
The antibiotic doxycycline was synthesized in the early 1960s. Like other tetracycline-class drugs, since the 1970s it has been actively used in animal husbandry as a growth stimulant for animals. In the 1990s, a decrease in the sensitivity of microorganisms to all tetracyclines, including pathogens of human infectious diseases, was noticed. In 2006, the use of antibiotics as growth promoters in animal husbandry was banned in the European Union, in 2017 — in the United States. After that, in veterinary medicine and medicine, there is a restoration of the sensitivity of microorganisms to all tetracycline-class antibiotics, including doxycycline.
Before buying doxycycline from our pharmacy, consult with your doctor to clarify the need of taking this antibiotic and to clarify the sensitivity of specific bacteria to it.
