Doxypen 100 Capsule 10 contains doxycycline (100 mg), which works on your body in the following ways:

• Protein synthesis inhibition: Doxycycline enters bacterial cells and binds to a part of the cell called the 30S ribosomal subunit. This action blocks the joining of aminoacyl-tRNA to the mRNA-ribosome complex, preventing bacterial protein synthesis.
• Bacterial growth prevention: By stopping bacteria from producing vital proteins, doxycycline inhibits bacterial growth and replication.
