[|AI|]  HiT hank you for asking Chat Doctor forum. I have gone through your query. DOXYCYCLINE is a bacteriostatic antibiotic and not so strong against upper respiratory infections. You may need more powerful broad spectrum antibiotics like CO-AMOXICLAV or LEVOFLOXACIN for such cases. Get a consultation with ENT specialist to treat laryngitis more accurately. You may also need to take voice rest for some days. Gargling with warm saline, taking warm chicken soup, Tea with lemon and honey, and chewable vitamin C is good also. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything is not clear. Thanks.
