Hey guys,
Well I got a letter from my LLMD, recap of our phone consult and he is putting me on the following meds: It says:

Amoxicillin 500mg 3 times daily four days a week.

Azithromycin 500mg 3 times daily four days a week.

Followed by:
Tinidazole 500mg 2 times daily for the remaining 3 days a week.

Are these good meds? Good combo? I'm confused on which to take when. Do I taek the amox and azithormycin on the same days at same time, and then the last three days take the other one?

Thanks.

IT does sound like he wants you to take
the Amox and Zith for days a week and stop those.

Then take just the TIn for the next 3 days of the week.

I have found pulsing and cycling to be a good thing and there are doctors who prescribe this way.

I think its a good combo too .. Good Luck with it.

Agree with Spring, but I would feel a lot better

if you would call your LLMD to clarify your schedule.XO
