Dr.K uses ABX along with other supportive Tx modalities, does he not?

Yes, he does Ali. I've heard it from many of his patients. They are all different abx according to the patient. As far as I remember it was 30 days on this abx. Sometime down the road it's another 30 day needed of another and so on.
Goodness you don't think he has voodoo abx, do you?

Thanks Pam,
I'm going to assume that the "voodoo ABX" was not intended for me, as I don't believe I have done anything to actually insult anyone's choice of Tx.
I was asking the question about ABX to try to determine if there are similarities between his approach and other non-conventional (non-IDSA) approaches.
Do you know if he generally uses higher than IDSA dosages of ABX?

Dr. K will typically use standard doses of similar abx that other llmd's use but only for short spurts and as indicated by ART. He also supports IV abx if needed.

Where can I get info on this Dr. K? I don't even know what ART is but I'd like to learn about this.
