1. What is Ligosan and what is it used for?
Ligosan contains the active ingredient doxycycline, an antibiotic of the tetracycline group.
Ligosan is indicated in the treatment of chronic and aggressive periodontitis in adults, with pocket depth
≥ 5 mm, in addition to conventional non-surgical periodontitis treatment.
Refer to official guidelines on the appropriate use of antibacterial agents.
2. What you need to know before you take Ligosan
Do not use Ligosan
- if you are allergic to doxycycline, to other tetracycline antibiotics or to any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
- if you have used systemic antibiotics (not for exclusive topical use) shortly before or during the treatment of periodontitis with Ligosan. Tell your dentist if you have used antibiotics, but are unsure if they are systemic antibiotics.
- in case of pregnancy or breastfeeding.
- in children and adolescents.
- if you are at high risk of developing an acute disorder of red blood pigment formation (acute porphyria).
- in case of severe impairment of liver function.
Warnings and precautions
Talk to your dentist or pharmacist before using Ligosan.
- It is known that treatment with tetracycline antibiotics such as doxycycline is potentially associated with an increased sensitivity to light and can cause hypersensitivity reactions following exposure to light. If any skin reactions occur, for example redness of the skin, inform your dentist, who will suspend treatment.
- In case of liver impairment or if being treated with hepatotoxic medicinal products, tetracycline antibiotics such as doxycycline must be used with caution.
- In case of kidney impairment, an accumulation of tetracycline antibiotics such as doxycycline may occur, which can cause liver toxicity. These effects are unlikely to occur following treatment with Ligosan, as a very low level of doxycycline has been found in the blood after treatment with this product.
- In patients with a history of previous yeast infection (candida infection), treatment with doxycycline may increase the risk of oral candida infections. As with other antibiotics, the use of Ligosan may create an increase in the resistance of microorganisms (including fungi) to tetracyclines.
- Tetracycline antibiotics can reduce the activity of blood coagulation factor II (plasma prothrombin). Therefore, if you are undergoing concomitant treatment with anticoagulants, the dosage of the anticoagulant may need to be reduced. Although this effect is unlikely to occur with Ligosan due to the low levels of doxycycline in the blood, these patients should be treated with particular care.
Children and adolescents
Do not administer this medicine to children and adolescents under the age of 18 years.
Other medicines and Ligosan
Tell your doctor, dentist or pharmacist if you are taking or have recently taken or might
take any other medicines.
The effects of other medicinal products and those of Ligosan can interact. The following interactions are possible:
- As an interaction with beta-lactam antibiotics is possible, the concomitant administration of doxycycline in patients undergoing treatment with beta-lactam antibiotics is not recommended.
- The concomitant administration of tetracycline antibiotics such as doxycycline and an anaesthesia with methoxyflurane can cause severe kidney failure (fatal).
- Doxycycline may increase the toxic effect of cyclosporine A.
Following treatment with Ligosan, exposure of other body parts, different from those treated, to
doxycycline (systemic exposure to doxycycline) is extremely low. Considering the low
blood levels of doxycycline after treatment with Ligosan, it is unlikely that the aforementioned
interactions, which affect body areas not undergoing treatment, will occur.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
If you are pregnant, suspect you are pregnant, are planning a pregnancy or are breastfeeding with breast
milk, ask your doctor, dentist or pharmacist for advice before using this medicine.
Pregnancy
The use of Ligosan is contraindicated in case of pregnancy.
The use of tetracycline antibiotics during dental development can cause permanent discoloration
of the teeth and defects of tooth enamel.
Breastfeeding
Tetracycline antibiotics such as doxycycline pass into breast milk, therefore treatment with
Ligosan is not recommended during breastfeeding.
Driving and using machines
Ligosan does not impair the ability to drive vehicles or use machines.
3. How to use Ligosan
Ligosan must be applied exclusively by dental professionals.
Dosage
The dose of Ligosan used depends on the size, shape and depth of the periodontal pockets.
Method of administration
Medicinal product for periodontal use.
It must be applied by dental professionals in the periodontal pockets using the dedicated device.
Duration of treatment
Ligosan is intended for single use.
If more Ligosan than necessary is applied
An acute overdose is not predictable. In case of an overdose of Ligosan, remove the
excess quantity from the periodontal pocket.
It is known that the harmful effects on health (acute toxicity) of medicinal products containing doxycycline
are low, even after taking comparatively high dosages.
In case of accidental overdose, gastrointestinal absorption can be prevented by administering
medicinal products that neutralize excess gastric acid (antacids) or salts
containing magnesium or calcium. This is based on the absorption of the active substance doxycycline by
compounds that cannot be absorbed by the body (non-absorbable chelate complexes). If
necessary, take other general supportive measures. Doxycycline cannot be eliminated from the
bloodstream by dialysis.
If you have any doubts about the use of this product, consult your doctor, dentist or pharmacist.
4. Possible side effects
Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.
Uncommon (may affect up to 1 in 100 people)
- gum swelling
- taste similar to chewing gum
Frequency not known (cannot be estimated from available data)
- urticaria with wheals, transient localised swelling of the skin and mucous membranes (angioedema), hypersensitivity reactions (anaphylaxis), red skin spots (allergic purpura)
The possibility of cross-allergy between the tetracycline group should be reported.
Side effects reported following oral administration of doxycycline are not indicated here.

If you get any side effects, even those not listed in this leaflet, please tell your
dentist or pharmacist
