So here I am doing the Biaxin thing again. I just took some about 2 hours ago and I feel amazing right now. My head feels like summer!!!!

I just cant believe it. Does the Biaxin cross the BBB?

WOW, I hope I can knock this out.

Best wishes

Yes it does. There was a study that my doc told me about, that measured the concentrations of biaxin in the CSF. It was present in significant levels relative to other abx. I do not have the citation for that study, it would be good to find.

Yes it does and I think it also is one of the abx that maintains higher levels in the bloodstream over time as well
