Hello,

So while I'm waiting for my other test results to come in I ordered artemisinin to try and see if that will do anything because the only thing I haven't treated is babesia.

My question is tho, I'm starting a 10 day herbal liver and kidney detox and I was wondering if that's bad to be doing while taking artemisinin?

TB,

When I was on Coartem I was real careful about what else I took that may interact. I recall that Rif and plaq were definitely contrained. I would er on the side of caution, especially if you have to wait only 10 days. Also check if your herbal detox contains wormwood. It think it is in the same family as artemisinin and may greatly increase your dosage.

Artemisinin is mixed with Mepron and Zith all the time, just be cautious with other stuff.

How you doing with police academy?
