Description:
Doxycycline inhibits protein synthesis in susceptible bacteria by blocking the transcription stage, which is reading the protein message from the bacterial RNA. THis action prevents the bacteria from producing essential proteins needed for growth, repair and replication and prevents the spread of infection. This action helps relieve symptoms of the bacterial infection, which include inflammation and pain.
