The recommendation should be made when dispensing doxycycline that it be administered either in conjunction with or immediately following feeding.

Do not use in pregnant bitches in the last 3 weeks of pregnancy and in newborn animals during the first month of life. Vomiting may occur as an uncommon side-effect. Keep out of reach of children and uniformed persons.
Although this remedy has been extensively tested under a large variety of conditions, failure may ensue as a result of a wide range of reasons. If this is suspected, seek veterinary advice and notify the registration holder.
The use of tetracyclines in young animals prior to the eruption of adult teeth may lead to permanent yellow staining of teeth. Antacids, containing aluminium, calcium and magnesium salts may affect the absorption of doxycycline and therefore should not be given to animals treated with VibraVet.
