My insurance company is denying to pay for extended treatment of my rocephin.

I still have my picc today is my last dose, until it hopefully gets appealed.

I have a script of doxy and picking 1 up from our vet (because my poor dog has lyme too)

Should I start taking the doxy again tomorrow???? Or wait another few days????

Why wait???

and I'm assuming this is human doxy!? not veterinarian you're talking about?

--editing to add--- OH>> you mean you have oral doxy ?

Believe it or not it is the same for dogs and humans. Just less dosage. They put him on 100mg a day, 1 pill.

Also did you know they have a vaccine for dogs.. Not that I would give it to him. And they took human and cat vaccine off the market in 2002..

I just wasn't sure if the doxy would interfer with the cef..
