I'm more concerned about getting counterfeit meds.

AllDayChemist is one that I've seen on this forum quite a bit...so maybe stick with one that has been used by members here...rather than an unknown one.

hi oddity, what's your detox routine?

I've been on doxy/rifampin/tinidazole for about 6 months, but had a two month break in between.

Thanks

I was told that if you take a break from rifampin it does not work as well when you restart it back up. Did you find any difference when you restarted from your break?

i've read that in quite a few places but could never get it confirmed by anyone. it would seem to make sense if the bugs adapt to the specific attack mechanism but who knows. i see my LLMD next week going to ask him.
