    Is there any recommendations on what supplements are safe to take with minocycline? I was taking calcium/mag/vit D, biotin, fish oil.

    Should I continue or stop while taking antibiotics?

    I don’t know of any reason for you to discontinue your supplements while on minocycline. I see a lot of people’s signatures and they take whatever supplements they need.

    Best to keep any supps or foods that contain minerals, like magnesium, calcium, iron, etc., (including supps with any mineral binders) at least 2-3 hours well away from a tetracycline abx, because minerals will bind to the abx in the gut, reducing absorption and rendering it ineffective.
