Anyone combine these 2 drugs? I'm getting so weak that I can't climb stairs or stand. Ceftriaxone is the only drug that slows down ALS so I think I need to take it again.
I started ivromectin a month ago and have gotten noticably weaker. I don't want to quit tho, since its the only things I've tested positive for!

You can always run your medication list through a drug interaction checker like the one on drugs.com. I checked ceftriaxone and ivermectin for you and they had no known interactions.
As always it is best to talk with your doctor about this. They need to know how you are feeling and that you are doing worse. This is very important.
Take care

You say you have been tested positive for ivermectin - was it by ART.
How much of ivermectin can you take now? If necessary you could go even slower but good if you would stay on the ivermectin.
Even healthy people can get very weak from parasite treatment especially in the beginning.
Try to take as much as you can but you always can take a day or some days off and restart on low dose.
