Even though we are told not to eat when taking Doxy, because of the high doses we must take and the prolonged use of abx, we really have to be careful to protect our stomachs very, very well. So if you aren't already, eat a little something before taking your abx.
Until your nausea subsides though, try using ginger. I had uncontrollable nausea until my doc had me start using ginger. I used the capsules and take a bunch - 5 grams to keep control of my nausea, but most don't need that much. You can sip on ginger tea, or nibble on candied ginger even. Although that ruins the no sugar thing, it may be worth it for a short time.
Hope this helps!
