Will doxycycline (always) exacerbate existing increased icp? And will it do so immediately? Because I have read that doxycycline can cause an increased icp, but I wonder what would happen if a person with existing increased icp would take doxycycline.

This medicine may cause increased pressure inside the head (intracranial hypertension). This is more likely to occur in women of childbearing age who are overweight or have a history of intracranial hypertension. Tell your doctor right away if you have a headache, blurred vision, or changes in vision.
