Best Answer: No. It is unlikely to be effective. By far the most common bacteria that causes UTI (urinary tract infection) is E. coli. Sulfa (Bactrim, Septra), nitrofurantoin (Macrodantin), Ampicillin, and ciprofloaxacin (Cipro) are prescribed to treat bladder infection (UTI). Doxycycline is ineffective against E. coli and most UTIs. The best way to be sure (but most expensive) is to go to the doctor and get a urinalysis to confirm that it's a bladder infection and to have a urine Culture and Sensitivity sent off.
Since doxycycline is a member of the tetracycline series of antibiotics, it may be expected to be useful in the treatment of infections which respond to other tetracyclines, such as: 1) Ophthalmic infections: Due to susceptible strains of gonococci, staphylococci and Haemophilus influenzae. Doxycycline Capsules are indicated in the treatment of trachoma, although the infectious agent is not always eliminated, as judged by immunofluorescence. 2) Rickettsial infections: Rocky Mountain spotted fever, typhus group, Q fever and Coxiella endocarditis and tick fevers.
