Just be ready to herx! To minimize herxing, be very strict with your diet.

Ok well that's basically what I was looking for... Can I take it at bed? Going to hold off till after the weekend then since im out of town all week but then I'll have all day to relax during the week in southern California.

Yea, you can take it before bed.

I think it was a German study that found that Diflucan is good against BB. It inhibits the p450 enzyme and essentially causes BB to not be able to process toxins, makes it easier to kill.

Ketaconazole helped with candida for me and didn't make me herx as bad. Once I started back on diflucan I started herxing harder.

It's hard on the liver, so be sure you are taking Milk Thistle with it.

Not a good idea to take it with milk thistle .

Take it away from milk thistle because they interact with each otheras it does with rifampin to .

Take it as far as you can from each other to protect your liver.
