From the available sources, it does not appear that Mesopral limits the absorption of Doxycyclin.
Gastrointestinal absorption of doxycycline may be interfered with by polyvalent aluminum, calcium and magnesium ions found in antacids or iron products, as well as by activated charcoal and cholestyramine.
When using an antibiotic, you should avoid taking preparations containing these ingredients. They are found in reflux and hyperacidity preparations available in pharmacies without a prescription. These include, for example, Manti, Gaviscon, Gelatum Aluminii phosphorici.
Mesopral is a safe option in this case, it does not interact with doxycycline, so it can be safely used in combination with an antibiotic. It contains esomeprazole in its composition.
Remember to always keep at least 20 minutes between your medication and always take your tablets with water.
The use of a probiotic during antibiotic therapy, as well as at least a week after its completion, is very important and should not be forgotten. It is recommended to take oral protective preparations at an interval of 2-3 hours after the antibiotic.
