Drug Class and Mechanism

Doxycycline is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that is primarily bacteriostatic. It is thought to exert its antimicrobial effect by inhibition of protein synthesis.
It prevents the binding of amino-acyl-tRNA to the messenger RNA-30S ribosomal subunit. The binding of fMet-tRNA is especially sensitive. As a result initiation, and therefore polyribosome formation, are blocked. Doxycycline inhibits only rapidly multiplying organisms.
Doxycycline is virtually completely absorbed after oral administration of either tablets and the absorption is not notably influenced by the ingestion of food or milk.
