Dear Brian,

I took 600mg of zith along with 1000mg of malarone and 1600mg of bactrim ds daily when treating babesia.

I also took 250mg of flagyl once weekly and 200mg of diflucan twice a week.

I only weigh about 105lbs.

I took that regimen for three months straight.

I am probably going back on that in June...as babs has reared it's ugly head again.

Hugs,

Geneal
