Hi,
As a prophylaxis you can take antibiotic also. But you have mentioned that You have taken Tab doxycycline then there is no need for other antibiotic.
As you are suffering from recurrent Candida infection, it is advised to take antifungal treatment for it. Intravaginal agents like Clotrimazole or butoconazole or miconazole can be taken along with single dose of oral agent like Fluconazole.
Doxycycline is not given for Candidal Vaginitis.
Do consider a positive feedback as a credit to my work. Let me know if you have any further questions.
