I was on MTE9 (as well as MTE11) pushes for about 6 weeks for Babesia. It is an herbal blend and I'm told quite gentle with few side effects, yet it is still quite effective. I was also getting Glutathione and Lymphomyosat via pushes. My Quest blood test came back negative for Babesia, though this is not conclusive since my initial test was through IgeneX.
I don't feel any better, but my doc says my fatigue is not due to Babesia but rather Lyme, Erlichia, and Epstein Barr. I'm currently on MTE5 and dioxychlor for those.
The only thing I can tell you is that I didn't have any bad reactions to the MTE9, and I hope it's helping, but I won't know for another couple months.
I'm surprised you found it on google. I looked and didn't see anything.

I realized my previous post might seem unenthusiastic on MTE9. According to my LLMD, the herbal MTE pushes are much better than the alternatives, at least for my situation (everyone is different). The alternatives are oral antibiotics or IV antibiotics. Not only are the herxes much less, but the duration of treatment is also much less.
I haven't been treated long enough to be able to personally experience the results. I've been under treatment for 2 months and expect to continue treatment for at least another several months.
