I am coming down with a cold and I heard that oil of oregano is great for the immune system (and for lyme) but what is the suggested use for someone who is also taking a lot of abx like myself?

I am not sure on the suggested dose if it has any interaction or what with ABX.

I know Buhner recommends Chinese Skullcap (Woodland Essence), Licorice and ginger root juice as anti virals.

He has a tea he recommends with a congestive type cold. I know when I got sick once I used it and wow it got things moving in a good way. Its kind of spicy tho. Basic recipe is: juiced ginger 2-4 oz., 1/4 of a lime squozen, tbl sp. of honey, 1/8 tsp. cayenne and 6-8 oz. of hot water. Stir and drink 2-6 cups daily.

This is from his Herbal Antivirals, which is a good up to date book. Hope this helps at all and you feel better soon!

There is no problem taking oregano with antibiotics. I have used it with a variety of antibiotics. These days I pulse it for a month on and a month off. If I get a virus, it is only on the month I'm not taking the oregano, so it does work!
