That's interesting.
I did a bit of poking around for you. Minocycline interacts pharmacologically with the brain to influence GABA and glutamate activity. It does this through producing changes in gene expression. This is in addition to its antibiotic, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective properties. I'm not saying that this stuff will work, but it is conceivable that it could.
A cool question to ask the doctors is why they chose minocycline over doxycycline.
