What other antibiotics do people generally take when they are on IV rocephin? I know rocephin does not target the cell wall deficient or cyst forms of lyme so just curious what people have taken during the IV regimen.

Thanks!

I pulse Flagyl with it-every two weeks- two weeks on-two weeks off. Flagy tastes nasty nasty, worse than nasty, but I learned here that if I dip it in Virgin Olive oil it goes down smooth.

Hi - I'm taking Zithromax 4 days a week, and Flagyl the other 3 days. Rocephin 7 days a week at 2gms.

When I took Levaquin, the doctor had me take it by itself. We were targeting bartonella, and he wanted to be able to clearly know the results.

Seems like you are taking alot at one time (to me).
