I think it may also have an effect on bartonella. Minocycline is also used to treat bartonella & both cross the bbb.

when I could not take Mepron or Malarone, Dr. H. said Doxy was the best he could do for me as it also has anti-malarial effects.

I know doxy works for ehrlichia (sp?).

My LLMD seems to feel that it also targets bartonella.

I was not on doxy when I treated babs.

Hugs,
