Abstract
Doxycycline is a bacteriostatic antibiotic of the tetracycline group widely indicated in the treatment of numerous infections (skin, soft tissues...). Given its acid nature, doxycycline is able to potentially generate mucous damage acting as a caustic; therefore, when the capsule of doxycycline (high concentrated substance) is taken inappropriately (with a small quantity of liquid or just before laying down) and remains for a longer time in contact with the esophagus, doxycycline may cause esophagitis-type lesions and ulcerations.
