Sunfish Posted January 25, 2006 Report Share Posted January 25, 2006 you may already know this, but minocycline is an antibiotic used "off-label" for other things...some with controversy, some currently in the study stage, etc.i only did a bit of searching/reading re: it's use b/c i'm always curious about new things but i have never heard of it in relation to autonomic problems. i've been under the care of and/or spoken with many of the "autonomic gurus" and keep pretty current on the clnical/research literature too and am pretty certain it's not been used or considered to date. of course that doesn't mean it can't/shouldn't be at some point...everyone's still learning! melissa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
