A 51-year-old man who was treated with quinine and doxycycline for Plasmodium falciparum malaria acquired in West Africa developed hiccups soon after his first dose of antimalarial therapy. Endoscopic examination performed when his hiccups became intractable showed an esophageal erosion and ulcer most likely due to doxycycline. The patient's symptoms resolved on treatment with omeprazole and sucralfate.
