Anyone ever heard of/tried this combo? Treating Lyme and Bart at the same time? My LLMD recommended this combo but I don't think I've seen a previous post about this abx combo before.

Any comments are welcome!

Ceftin and levequin are different families of antobiotics. Ceftin is sort of like ceftriaxone, which is a real good drug for lyme. Levequin has been used a lot for bartonella. It sounds ike you are jsut starting treatment as this is a common combo for the first go since it covers two the most common infections that are found from ticks.

When I first became a patient of Dr.B's (right before he retired!!!), this is the first combo he put me on for both Lyme and Bart.

This was a great combination for me and my lyme/bart symptoms of 7 months started disappearing.
