Anyone else out there treated with these meds together for lyme? I'm especially wondering about the amantidine. I have not seen it mentioned here often.

All I know about it is that it's an anti-viral and they gave it to my daughter when she had the flu.

Do you have co-infections??

It is an antiviral but it's also used to make the cells more alkaline so the anti biotic can penetrate better. (or something like that! It's in Dr B's guidelines)

I used it with Zithromax a long time ago. I hated it because it made me very constipated!
