Ok, I am on bactrim and roxithromycin and just added GSE!
I am taking 125 mg per day and am herxing pretty hard.
Is this an ok dosage? Is it truly ok to add to the abx regimine?

Grapefruit seed extract is not the same as grapefruit juice. My LLMD has me taking GSE with my abx.
I don't know if the interactions would be the same as the juice since the seed is entirely different.

This discussion has been brought up before about the preservatives, etc. You may want to do a search.
I think it's not true about the preservatives in this product but I could be wrong. I had a pretty strong herx from a product I was using. It had other ingredients, though.
There's a big reason why the drug companies may not want people to use this product. Anti-viral drugs are expensive. Scientists can be bought off...
I'm a little suspicious about this preservative issue.
