Arizona Tribune - Sunshine Biopharma Launches STD, Acne and Lyme Disease Therapy Doxycycline

Doxycycline is a broad-spectrum antibiotic used to treat respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, sexually transmitted diseases, acne, and tick-borne illnesses such as Lyme disease. With high oral bioavailability and a long half-life, Doxycycline continues to be a first-line treatment across multiple antibacterial areas.

The Canadian Doxycycline market is part of a broader North American segment projected to grow steadily through 2030. While exact Canadian figures are segmented within regional data, the North American Doxycycline market is expected to contribute significantly to the global market, which was valued at approximately $729 million in 2024 and is forecasted to reach $1.2 billion by 2030, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.6% (DataString Consulting).

"Launching Doxycycline in Canada aligns with our mission to deliver high-quality, affordable medications that meet real clinical needs," said Dr. Steve Slilaty, CEO of Sunshine Biopharma. "We are proud to support healthcare providers with a trusted antibiotic backed by rigorous manufacturing and regulatory standards."

Sunshine Biopharma's doxycycline comes in 100 mg tablets and is manufactured in compliance with Health Canada's regulatory framework, ensuring therapeutic equivalence to the reference product. Distribution is underway through established pharmacy networks and hospital channels.

This launch follows Sunshine Biopharma's recent expansion into anti-infective therapies and complements the Company's growing pipeline of generic drugs targeting infectious diseases, oncology, and metabolic disorders.
