Abstract
Doxycycline is a synthetic broad-spectrum antibiotic used to treat infections of urinary tract, acne, gonorrhea, chlamydiosis, periodontitis, etc. Side effects can cause by taking outdated Doxycycline. Outdated Doxycycline hydrochloride drug may not safe and should be thrown out if there is any leftover. As a common practice, many times unused, or expired Doxcycline discard in the toilet but this method may not be any safer than throwing in the trash because it can contaminate water. Deposing of drugs like Doxycycline is a major problem in today’s pharmaceutical Industries. Therefore in the present study we used unexploited Doxycycline Hydrochloride Drug in textile processing. Outdated Doxycycline reused to dye silk. This method can keep disused Doxycycline medication from being illegally abused or sold. This method can effectively use to solve two major environmental and economical problems: limitation of environmental pollution with pharmaceutically active compounds and reduction of the disposal costs of disused drugs.
