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 table)
- •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).
