Zusammenfassung:An improved method for treating acne is described. The method involves 16-week, once daily, oral administration of about 40 mg doxycycline in a pharmaceutical composition containing about 30 mg doxycycline in an immediate release portion and about 10 mg doxycycline in a delayed release portion. It was surprisingly discovered that the 16-week, once daily, oral administration of about 40 mg doxycycline has achieved same or superior efficacy than that of 100 mg doxycycline, but with a significant reduction in adverse events.
