I'm wondering if I can take MICRODOX LBX tablets again without a doctor's advice. They helped me before with skin pimples. Are there any side effects I should be aware of?

MICRODOX LBX tablet is a combination medication that contains Doxycycline and Lactobacillus. It is commonly used to treat acne and other bacterial infections. However, it is important to note that antibiotics like Doxycycline should not be taken without a doctor's prescription, as they can have potential side effects and may not be suitable for everyone
