cheapest and best option is animal penicillin

Made at same place in same vat, labeled and billed differently cost wise.

Most people dont want to hear or practice that!

hey just don,
I trust you !
so, I go to TSC and get outta the locked display,
penicillin - what do you think my LLMD is going to say (:
I gave this to cattle back in the day, it was to treat those huge flies that bore into them..
Life's great..
I appreaicate the thought, but, I don't think I have big enough chawhootas for that..
but, I am a man and I will change if I have to
ha ha ha [spinning smile]

will, look at the pricing soon and get with ya...

If you're close to a Mexican boarder that might be a good idea, thats what I did.

Posted by In19944 (Member # 34272) on :

Animal Bicillin is cheaper but the conversion dosage over to medical grade, you'd still have to buy 4 or 5 at 10 bucks a pop to equal 1.2 million units.

My doc says Mexico is best option too. I'd do it, if anyone knows specifics..PLEASE pm me..

I used animal bicillin it was the same as the human stuf. 14 months at two shots a week I gave myself over 140 shots.

The lyme was gone for one year then came back.I even posted here that I was cured. My count droped a lot during that time,but not enough.

Mabey two years would have cured me ??????????

First off...

Bicillin is a tradename for Penicillin G Benzathine.

Most all "Penicillin" found at Farm supply stores is different, Penicillin G Procaine.

Some veterinary forms you CAN get Penicillin G Benzathine combined with Penicillin G Procaine. Problem is, one would have to take so much quantity to get the needed dose of the Penicillin G Benzathine, it is unpractical.

I have not found a veterinary source for pure Penicillin G Benzathine (and I have a farm, so it's not out of place if I ask a supplier).

That being said, probably the vet forms better then nothing, but It never got me past relapsing 4 or 5 years ago before I was under treatment protocal by an LLMD, and had no other choice other then to self-treat.
