Any herx reactions to this? What should i be expecting lol? I'm being started on 10 mg twice a day which I appreciate because I don't want a high dosage

I’m taking the oral drops. I had worked up to 8 drops a day but backed off after my stomach started getting irritated after taking it. I’m doing better with 4-5 drops. I think one drop is roughly 2mg of MB. I’m taking this for overall health support but specifically mitochondria.

I was given the capsules with blue powder in it. My llmd says it's effective against lyme, bartonella amd babesia, herpes virus, HIV,viruses and for malaria . I don't know what to expect as far as die off and who knows wth else is breeding in my body besides lyme. I have been on azithromycin amd bactrim for about 9 months now and now being taken off the bactrim for methylene blue.

yes expect a herx reaction - it is antimicrobial but also seems to effect mitochondrial function - and that in itself can cause herx like reactions in some people

i am moderately sensitive and i started at 10mg a day and it was manageable - i gradually worked up to 120mg / day as i am a bit heavier than the average person

typical doses when used for mitochondrial benefits are around 50-100mg a day

when used as an adjunct to other antimicrobials - its typically used at 100-200mg / day

similar doses for Methemoglobinemia

it may be active for many different organisms - but bear in mind - when used as a monotherapy as an antimicrobial - doses were 400 to 900mg / day ( side effects common at this dose )

it has been used by Dr H in his pulsed high dose dapsone protocols at i think 600mg / day short term

due to the side effects of higher doses - i believe its best used in moderate doses 100-200mg / day as an adjunct to antibiotics or herbs

Note - its very important to use only proper pharmaceutical grade methylene blue - unmarked or no pharma sources - ie as is commonly sold for microscopy stain, aquarium antifungal use or in the dairy industry -or just in dopper bottles on amazon etc - is not suitable
heavy metals are typically found in the product as a result of the manufacturing process and additional purification steps are needed to make it suitable for pharma use.

My llmd sent my prescription to Infuserve. Is this a good company, anyone use it? Think it's based out of Florida. It can in the mail within 3 days of paying, fairly quick. I only paid $104 , it's 60 capsules and it's 2x a day. Not a bad price, as I heard of ppl paying loads more.

that will be fine - they are a compounding pharmacy - so they will only use pharma grade ingredinets

its the online sellers like amazon, ebay, etsy - and chemical suppliers you need to be careful of

This company is great. I was getting my MB and Ivermectin from them. A rx from DR. J. So now I cant get it. Their price is great. I found one source of pure stuff and it was really expensive.

I went to my new neurologist. I mentioned MB to him and he said "never heard of it" and kept typing.

I thought I saw someone ask on this thread if MB is okay with others herbs like tinctures and someone replied saying it was okay… but maybe I was wrong!

Just incase - I think that with MB you aren’t supposed to take alcohol (I could be wrong) so that might contradict with alcohol based tinctures, you might want to swap to alcohol free

Here is some good information on dr Myhill website about MB

click here

Also she sells a good medical grade one on her shop

Also to answer your question - I think I had a herx or some kind of bad reaction (not sure if it was a herx or not) so maybe start slow which it sounds like you a doing!
