This paper aims to provide a concise review of doxycycline, including a case report that provides an exemplar of a short-term application of this drug to a patient who developed skin and soft tissue infection of the lower extremity after elective surgery. Doxycycline appears to be benign but research suggests that it does have notable side effects and contraindications. A short duration of treatment is recommended after the risks and benefits of Doxycycline are carefully considered, and after the therapeutic guidelines provided by CDC, IDSA and WHO are reviewed. Studies have shown that Doxycycline is effective; however, it is not appropriate for every patient and increased reports of overuse have become a serious problem. Doxycycline should be used on organisms that are sensitive or suspected to be sensitive to it. Synthesis of the literature also suggests that dose and duration needs to be careful examined. When used in outpatient therapy, use of Doxycycline prevents extended hospital stays, thus potentially reducing hospital-acquired infections and reduced costs for the hospital and the patient. Although it does have a broad antimicrobial coverage, patients should be transitioned to a narrow therapy following the discovery of sensitivity results.
