What all does Biccilin hit?

Lyme?
Bart?
Babs?

All strains???

I read in post that it can "get where oral abx cant" is that really true? It penetrates soft tissue? Joints???

Is it a good change after being on orals for a while? Once loads have been reduced a bit?

Does it hit cyst form??

Lots of questions here!

Bicillin hits lyme - Motile forms

Flagyl and Tinidazole are cyst busters

took bicillin shots for a year. Worked best out of all medications for me. Didn't rid me of lyme but help stabilize me.

Bicillin, biaxin and plaquenil (cyst-buster) have been a good combo for me. Biaxin is a macrolide, and works intracellular and crosses the blood-brain barrier.

But to completely take care of bart I will probably need to add rifampin or levaquin.
