doxycycline is an antibiotic and must have been prescribed for the infection. Doxycyline as an antibiotic can cause some stomach upset and increased photosensitivity - so ideally use sunscreen while on it. Clear gel probably contains clindamycin which is also an antibiotic. Just applying it locally is safe and there is nothing to worry. Hope this was helpful.
