I am currently taking Azith & Plaq (plus buhner core herbs, crypto, hout, sida). Thinking of adding Doxy 2x a day. Anyone try this combo before? It was listed on Dr. H's presentation slide awhile back.

I guess if Dr. H has that combo suggested, then it's definitely fine, but I would think you have your bases covered with the Azith and Plaquenil, based on each drug's function as covered here

The doxy doesn't appear to do anything that the other two aren't already doing. But I'm not a scientist. :P

I think Doxy might help with the mycoplasma I have too. I forgot to mention that. I know Azith hits it a little.

Tetracyclines + macrolides are beneficial. They actually stack on top of each other and bind to different parts of bacterial ribosomes. Tetracyclines bind the 30s subunit and 50s subunit is bound by macrolides. The Plaquenil alkalizes the intracellular compartments and makes macrolides work 40% more effectively. It may also potentiate tetracyclines.

But tetracycline and macrolides are both useful for mycoplasma. Actually the duo treats all the various infections pretty well.
