I didnt know about the grapefriut lol. BUT I do know I am allergic to

that one too lol. I HATED the aftertaste. Tis nasty, especially in

the AM when you wake up!!

I got rashes, (got chronic hives now too lol) but I also got fevers,

chills, stomach cramps, throat tightness etc.

Let me know if the grapefruit helps !

Have spoken to some about that

horrible aftertaste

-Heard that potatoe chips helps kill the metalic taste

-also if Biaxin upsets her stomach - the Biaxin Xl - is not as

irritating

Hope she is doing better soon!

Hi Roni,

What was the dose of the pill once you'd cut it in half? Dr. Chiu said that

he gave his patients 250mg of clarithromycin on Tues and Thurs to start with.

Hi Roni,

If you've been on Biaxin before with no problems, it would seem worth trying

it again. I'd give it a couple of weeks break and then try a quarter of a pill

- 125mg roughly- on Tues and Thurs and stay on that for a couple of weeks. Then

try a quarter of a pill Tues and a half a pill Thurs etc.

Dr. Chiu said he'd seen some very severe herx reactions with Biaxin and told

this group to always take a very small amount at first.

Chris.

Jeff,

It is considered a pretty potent Lyme antibiotic, strong enough that I've

heard some docs prescribe it alone. It can be kind of hard on the belly, so

be sure to take it with food, and be sure you increase the acidophilus since

you are increasing the whammy to your digestive tract!

Glad to hear this was added to your ammo -- kill those 'chetes!!!!!

Tamara did that combination, amoxicillin and biaxin, for 6 months or

more. It worked well for her and she was in remission, but only

lasted about 4 weeks after stopping before feeling that she was

relapsing. I wouldn't really draw any conclusions about what that

might mean about it not being completely effective. She is now on

zithromax and feeling better already.

Im on the Ketek/Mepron protocol. From what I understand, Ketek is a combo of

Zithromax and Biaxin. I'd ask him about Ketek.

It is really hard to know what to take and not take. Right now, I am

taking Cipro and Tetracycline. The Cipro is suppose to be good for the

babesia. I think I read that in a quote from the book " Coping with

Lyme " . Dr H from NY said it I believe. So far so good. I have not had

huge improvement, but have stopped going downhill so fast. The Neuro

symptoms are the main thing that eased off. My speech even seems a

little better- kinda. Good luck and remember that there is no one drug

to treat this. I even hear many say it is best to change every 3

months or so. Hang in there.

Hi, anyone have any experience with your child and biaxin? We seem to

have a horrible experience when my son takes this for respiratory

infections. He gets really loopy on this. We have tried the liquid and

pills....we have been on it for 8 days now, he still doesn't seem much

better. I can't tell if it is the medicine or the fact he doesn't feel

so great. Thanks for any input. Noel

We were able to get my daughter off all meds for asthma and chronic bronchitis

using a natural product called Quercitin. It helps with inflamation and has no

side effects. Do not get quercitin with nettles because some people react to the

nettles which are also very good for you but you just don't want to start there.

Hi Noel -

My son does the opposite - he improves and brightens

up on the clarythromycin (Biaxin). I mean, he does

really well. But that just means it's a good mix for

him. I don't do well on erythromycin - not too far

away, and I remember I refused to take Biaxin because

it made me feel so bad - sparky and anxious and

nauseas. But I jump for joy when my son gets it.

Do you have any idea what type of respiratory

infection he's getting? Like, has he been checked for

mycoplasma and such?

Could his behavior be more related to having been ill

(like possible virus) as opposed to the antibiotic?

Or is this a consistent to that antibiotic and not

others? I do think it has immune stimulating effects

but I'm not sure ... perhaps it pushes his further in

a direction that doesn't work for him? Does he

respond to others better? And last - could the

infections actually be allergy?

Sorry to not be of much help... Sometimes they just

don't help one the way they do another.

Thank you Everyone...., He usually gets pneumonia after the start of a

common cold..we did IVIG for 8 months, off for three now because it started to

make him really sick, vomitting, loopy etc...nausea major headaches. He still

has CVID though. It is hard to see this regression, He is indistinguishable from

his peers when he is not sick and in regular preschool class. I have to keep him

home when this goes on. He becomes so irritable, yelling, pouting, obsesses, it

is frustrating. I have updated Dr. G with no response yet. Thanks for your

response, Sincerely Noel

Wow - he has so much going on. Does Dr G give him the

Biaxin? And do they know what type of pneumonia -

i.e. is it mycoplasma pneumonia? I've carried that

chronic, and I never really responded to anything (in

a way that made me feel better while I was on the

antibiotics, that is) other than doxycycline.

I guess he's not old enough for doxycycline, huh?

Will you let us know what Dr G says?

I will let you know, Doxycycline is what I want to ask for. The only antibiotic

he ever did well on was Flagyl....but this isn't really for mycoplasmas? Dr. G

did give him the Biaxin, this is the second time we have used it and the first

time was a nightmare too, Dr. G wanted to use it again? We will see. Thanks

My son also did well on sulfur ... but he's not

exactly a gage for ya. I'm allergic to it but not

severely enough that I couldn't take a couple of doses

before I developed a sensitivity to it.

My other son, who does not do well on Biaxin like his

brother, did really well on Ery-Ped, which I believe

has sulfur in it too. His brother did not. So if

they're opposites, maybe you'll strike gold there.

And sulfur is one of the oldie goodies that everything

is still sensitive too.

Maybe you'll strike gold this time! :) No fear - just

optimism. There's always time to be disappointed

later. If only I could learn to take that advice.

Doxycycline is hard on the bones, so it's not a good

choice for younger kids. I really don't know the age

Thank you , anyway my son is on Ketoconazole and the pharmacist just

informed me that Ery-Ped , pediazole, there is a drug interaction, so this is

not an option.

Biaxin seems to be one of those that some can do but most can¹t do. I have

heard this from many doctor¹s. I would not continue to give it. Call & ask

for something else.

Isn't Flagyl " the " drug for parasites? Maybe he is affected by parasites?

I am sorry, this doesn't answer your question but it is interesting that

you are talking about drug reactions just as we are in the throws of

just that!! It is also interesting that he did well on Flagyl.

My daughter is on Flagyl, as I was discussing last week, for a parasite

and is totally " loopy " . She is hypersensitive to sound and touch

(usually she has been hyposensitive). She has had a couple episodes of

shaking out of fear of a noise. She is crying about everything, I mean

absolutely everything. Does anyone know how long it takes for the side

effects to abate after going off a medication?. Are we risking damaging

her system permanently?? What does Dr. G do in this situation. Does he

change the medication? We are not seeing him yet.

Caroline, you won't damage her permanently. Cheryl may answer you better than I,

but I would wait for about 7-10 days and see how she does. This is usually Dr.

Gs rec. I don't know how he treats parasites? If at all. Dr. G does not like

DAN I can tell you that. Is your daughter on Valtrex or yeast meds? hang in

there, Noel
