My derm prescribed me a low dose of doxy over a period of about 6 months. I also take Vitamin B5, and she said I could continue taking that along with the doxy. Only problem is, the Vitamin B5 contains calcium (it's in the form of d-calcium pantothenate) AND it's also time released. I searched around and couldn't find anything, so I was wondering, is it still ok to take this time released form of B5 with doxy? Does the "timed release" mean that it's constantly releasing calcium into my bloodstream, and therefore binding to the doxy? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
