Summary

[edit]
Description

Minocycline is a tetracycline derivative antibiotic commonly prescribed for acne, rosacea, and other inflammatory skin disorders. Minocycline turns black when oxidized, leading to discoloration of the skin and nails. Pigmentation may also involve the bulbar conjunctiva, oral mucosa, teeth, bones, and thyroid gland. Pigmentation has been reported after long-term minocycline therapy with at least 100 mg/day.
