Some enzymes seem to have fairly wide ranging effects, not just on digestion but on the blood.... breaking down fibrin to reduce inflammation etc.
I just started Ketek and want to take digestive enzymes. I can't find any contra-indications on the drug sites I checked so does anyone know if the two are ok together? Anyone taking them have good reports? (or bad)

Shouldn't be a problem. Which ones are you thinking about taking? Did you see the thread on Wobenzymes?

Might want to just keep this in mind. Because certain enzymes can break down fibrin in the blood, it might get you a bigger wallop of a herx. The reason is, the fibrin coats viens and everything else with a "teflon" like coating. That coating makes it more difficult for ABX to penetrate. Remove it, and you get better penetration, resulting in bigger herx.

I was told that the digestive enzymes ,taken with a cyst buster like flagel or tindamax can make these drugs more effective.
I don't know about the abx.
Take care
