Guest guest Posted June 6, 2006 Report Posted June 6, 2006 Hi All, I am a lurker, I've been reading here for a while, and have learned tons of stuff! I'm currently taking doxy, nizoral, cefzil. I'd like to switch from doxy to mino as I keep reading that people make that switch due to sun damage. Is this correct? Is the mino just as good?? My LLMD says just to use 50SPF, but I still burn - not a sunburn but maybe heat-burn? What do you think? Quote

Guest guest Posted June 8, 2006 Report Posted June 8, 2006 , Definitely get on the Mino. Like said it is stronger and I believe better than Doxy. I was on doxy 5 months, the first 3 it worked well and then it quit helping. I sunburned in under 15 mins on Doxy, but am ok in the sun on mino. I had to ease into the 150mg a day, gradually building up to that dose because mino causes a strong herx. It can cross the blood brain barrier which few abx can; doxy certainly can't. It also is used to treat rheumatoid arthritis because it penetrates the joint. I'm taking it along with Zith & Flagyl and seeing improvements. > > senoraturner <lturner@...> wrote: Hi All, > I am a lurker, I've been reading here for a while, and have learned > tons of stuff!
