As an FYI, I am aware of two randomized controlled trials that have evaluated minocycline as an add-on treatment to antipsychotics in patients with schizophrenia. Both studies seemed to find a significant reduction in negative symptoms in the participants treated with minocycline alongside their antipsychotics compared with those who were given placebos alongside their antipsychotics.
Here are the links to the studies:
