Doxycycline is a commonly prescribed antibiotic that is effective against a broad range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The active ingredient, doxycycline, is a semi-synthetic derivative of tetracycline, which inhibits bacterial protein synthesis. It has a broad spectrum of activity against various bacterial pathogens includingStaphylococcus aureus,Streptococcus pneumoniaePseudomonas aeruginosa, andEscherichia coli.
Doxycycline is available in various concentrations, including oral and intravenous forms, and has been widely used in the treatment of various bacterial infections, including urinary tract, skin, and respiratory tract infections. In this study, we focused on the use of doxycycline in the treatment of bacterial infections. We also investigated the potential use of doxycycline in the management of respiratory tract infections. This study also explored the potential use of doxycycline in the management of other conditions such as pneumonia and sinusitis. Overall, this study provides an important insight into the potential use of doxycycline in the treatment of bacterial infections.
This was a single center, retrospective study of patients who were admitted to the hospital between January 2017 and May 2018 from the United States National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database. The data were collected using a validated questionnaire. The study included all patients with a history of bacterial infections at the hospital and with a duration of treatment ≥4 days. Patients with a history of respiratory tract infections, including sinusitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, and urinary tract infections, were excluded. Finally, we included patients who met the following criteria: (1) were admitted to the hospital, (2) had a history of bronchial asthma, (3) had severe renal impairment, and (4) had a severe pneumonia diagnosis. All patients were enrolled in this study and they were monitored for an additional period of at least 12 days. We collected data from patients who were admitted to the hospital with a duration of antibiotic therapy ≥4 days. The duration of antibiotic therapy is defined as a period of ≥4 days between antibiotics administered to patients, when patients are hospitalized for treatment with the antibiotic for an extended period of time.
All patients who were admitted to the hospital with a diagnosis of respiratory tract infection, including sinusitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, and urinary tract infections, were included in this study. They were excluded if they had a history of respiratory tract infection, including sinusitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, and urinary tract infections. All patients who were admitted to the hospital with a diagnosis of bronchitis or pneumonia, who had a history of respiratory tract infection, including sinusitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, and urinary tract infection, were excluded. We included patients with a duration of antibiotic therapy ≥4 days, who were admitted to the hospital for treatment with antibiotics for an extended period of time.
The demographic characteristics of the patients were presented as a mean±SD. The antibiotic exposure was defined as the number of antibiotic prescriptions per 100,000. A significant difference between the groups was determined using the χ2 test. The continuous variables were expressed as mean±SD. The categorical variables were presented as frequencies and percentages. The comparison of the groups using a one-way ANOVA was performed. A P-value<0.05 was considered to be statistically significant.
The mean duration of antibiotic therapy was 1.5±0.8 days for the oral and 4.3±2 days for the intravenous forms. The mean duration of antibiotic therapy in the patients was 3.3±1.5 days for the oral and 5.5±2.1 days for the intravenous forms. The mean duration of antibiotic therapy in the patients was 2.8±1.8 days for the oral and 3.1±2 days for the intravenous forms.
