Is it useless to take Cipro alongside Mepron? I've been taking Mepron for almost a year and This is my second time taking Cipro. Could this be causing my backslide?

My doctor took me off Mepron to take Cipro and Levaquin, but I thought it was an interaction with the Biaxin/Zith rather then the Mepron because he changed me to Malarone, which is the same med but doesn't require the Biaxin/Zith.

I take Biaxin too

I think that's the one that interacts, which is why Mepron isn't taken with Cipro.

ugh... now what.

Talk to your LLMD. I took two drugs that interacted, but my LLMD had a reason for it.

Lymeboy, I have read that mepron can cause severe depression in some. This can happen after months of no problems with it. There is someone on this forum who felt better as soon as she stopped it.

My LLMD prescribed Cipro and I also take Mepron.

Quinolones (Cipro/Levaquin) shouldn't be taken with Macrolides (Biaxin / Zith) due to potential QC interval issues.
