If someone thinks they may have just been bitten by a tick would Samento be enough to clear the infection up?
Stop things getting more serious?

No you need banderol as well. You should take the banderol with the samento. Banderol and samento work synergistically together.
Personally I wouldn't even take a chance knowing what i now know about
the disease and what happens after it spreads in the body. I would get a prescript
ion for doxycycline and tinidazole.

If you haven't been bit by a tick yet, you should be taking astralagus for prevention. After getting the disease it becomes not as useful, but Buhner believes it is one of, if not the best preventative for lyme.

1000mg Astragalus daily, according to Buhner's book (p. 204).

If one don't ever have a bulls eye rash or find a tick attached to you, but you found ticks around the area that you sleep when camping how could i get a prescript
ion for doxycycline and tinidazole..
Surely dr's won't give these out unless you know you had a tick attached?

Essentially no, depending on whether you have co infections or not.

For starters, it would certainly be better than nothing, but it won't clear up the infection.
