`ABSTRACT
`(57)
`Disclosed are once-daily formulations containing tetracy(cid:173)
`clines, especially doxycycline. Such formulations are useful,
`for instance, for the treatment of collagenase destructive
`enzyme-dependent diseases, such as periodontal disease and
`acne, and acute and chronic inflammatory disease states, such
`as rosacea and arthritis.
