well... Though I haven't tried them, I see 6 listed on the spreadsheet from LymePA(dot)org :

www.lymepa.org/Antibiotics_spreadsheet_2004-1215.pdf

They list 2 other cephalosporins for IM: Clafaran & Ceftin, but indicate $$$ in the cost column.

I did gentamicin. It was the only drug that took away the fullness surrounding my heart. I'm certain it was a strain of bartonella.

My doctor has recommended lincomycin because I can't take bicillin, but I haven't tried it yet.
