Can I take doxycycline hyclate 150 mg before getting a breast augmentation?

Question

Do I have to get off the pill? I’m on the pill for my acne.

Hi Cecilia Liu, I understand your concern. It is best that you discuss your concerns with your plastic surgeon as every surgeon has different pre-operative preferences and preparations. Make sure your surgeon knows what medications you are currently taking before undergoing breast augmentation surgery. Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

Hello,
Doxycycline hyclate is a long acting antibiotic of low potency and will not interfere in any way with your breast augmentation.
I dont stop it of my patients.
You need to check with you PS.
Wish you all the best.
