Thanks for your response.

BV,

I took that combo, finally quit because the biaxin made me an insomniac. But, that was me. Lots of people on the board think biaxin is great. I didn't have any tummy issues though.

I took doxy and zithromax, which is related to biaxin. It was a good combo.

I took doxy and biaxin, same doses you were prescribed, while I was taking IV Rocephin. IV Rocephin did nearly nothing for me until I added this combo, and then wow!

I started to feel slowly better for the first time! That combo helped with my arthritis, neuropathy and muscle jerks. Now that I've gone on to other meds, though, that's all back. I was a big fan of these with Rocephin!
