Minocycline is a tetracycline antibiotic prescribed to treat various infections, acne vulgaris, and rosacea. In addition to its antibiotic activity, it possesses anti-inflammatory properties, including reducing the production of proinflammatory cytokines, suppressing neutrophil chemotaxis, activating superoxide dismutase, and inhibiting phagocytosis. Among its side effects are hypersensitivity syndrome reactions, drug-induced lupus, and polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) [1].
