Ive heard everything from 3 weeks on/1 week off to 4 days on/3 days off. Can somebody tell me what the usual schedule of Artemisinin would be? thanks so much

I wouldn't pulse it myself. I hope you're going to take it with Zith or Biaxin?

Our LLMD has my daughter taking it every day. Everybody responds differently to it.

well ive been taking it 3 weeks/1 week off for 10
months now, with whatever antibiotic ive been on.
(currently on doxy).........i just didnt know if
it was necessary to take it that long (3 weeks) or
if i should be doing a shorter pulse

In my non-medical opinion it would be better this way than 4 days on and 3 days off.
Seems that is allowing the bugs a great opportunity.

I've heard of 3 days on and 4 days off. Dr. K recommends 3 weeks on 1 week off. The break is necessary to prevent the buildup of some enzyme in your gut which prevents the absorbtion of iron.
