Instructions for breaking the 150 mg doxycycline hyclate delayed-release dual-scored tablet

Your doctor may find it necessary to adjust your dosage of doxycycline hyclate delayed-release tablets to obtain the proper treatment response. The tablet is marked with separation lines (score lines) and may be broken at these score lines to provide any of the following doses. If your doctor prescribed:

• 150 mg  treatment (take the entire tablet)

• 100 mg  treatment (take  two thirds of the tablet or two 50 mg tablet segments)

• 50 mg treatment (take  one third of the tablet)


To break the tablet, hold the tablet between your thumbs and index fingers close to the   appropriate score line. Then, with the score line facing you, apply enough pressure to snap the tablet segments apart (do not use segments that do not break along the score line).

Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
