You can do a google search on it and see the side effects that are possible. Probably doesn't mean that all people who use it have the same side effects however.

There are certain medications that will make you more susceptible to UV light (sunlight) and it always says so on the use instructions that come with every prescription. So what you are experiencing is sunburn on skin that was exposed to sunlight. Here is the warning that normally accompanies Doxycyclene:


Plan to avoid unnecessary or prolonged exposure to sunlight and to wear protective clothing, sunglasses, and sunscreen. Doxycycline may make your skin sensitive to sunlight.

My daughter in law's father is a farmer and has the same problem with some medications he takes. If he is out in the sun for even a short time his skin turns a bright red.
