Can Monodox Cause Anxiety?

I am taking 100 mg Monodox once daily with food. I ve been on it for a month and have developed anxious thoughts and feelings. This happened last year as well when my derm prescribed it to me. I eventually stopped taking it but I was never sure the Monodox was the cause or not. Is this typical? My derm thinks I m crazy.
