Hi all,

My twin boys have been pulsing artemisinin (along with other drugs) 4 days on and 3 days off for several months. I'm just wondering if this is the time period for pulsing artemisinin that your LLMD uses.

If he/she does a different pulse, please let me know what it is (e.g, 3 days on and 4 days off).

It's my understanding that Zhang's artemesia is not supposed to be pulsed, but my boys are taking Artemisinin, which is different.

Thanks,

tickbattler

I pulsed 3 days on and 4 days off each week.

The 3 days were to coincide with the flare I got each week.

I took it with Bactrim DS, taken daily.
