Guest guest Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 Jim, I don't know if you can post it to the list, but I would like to know the dosages which the MS people are taking (zithromax plus minocycline). Is it posted on their website? Can you direct me to their website? Thank you. Re: [infections] Digest Number 186 One more thing-- Roxithromycin is not available in the US which is why,for americans, Wheldon says azithromycin (Zithromax)is the next choice. I have read some things that saythat azithromycin doesn't have the same blood-brainbarrier penetration as Roxith. Zithromax does havebetter tissue penetration and build up than doxy andis a good complement to it in terms of the differentprotein sytheses they effect. On the MS site, a lot of folks are using minocyclineand zithromax as the combo, I think because otherstudies have shown useful improvement on minocyclinealone in MS, perhaps because of it's anti-inflameffects as well. I'll relay any response I get from Wheldon.Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
