Doxycycline's side effects (tetracycline) makes you darker in the sun....(My cousins take tetracycline for acne)
and metronidazole's side effects are nausea, diarrhea, and/or metallic taste. Infrequent adverse effects include: hypersensitivity reactions (rash, itch, flushing, fever), headache, dizziness, vomiting, glossitis, stomatitis, dark urine, and/or paraesthesia.
Antibiotics should never be stopped as they loose their effectiveness in backing your virus into a corner and killing it.
