I was wondering if anyone has tried buying antibiotics online? I've heard that you can purchase pet meds without a prescription, and that the antibiotics they use on dogs to treat Lyme are the same as what they use on humans. Has anyone tried this? I'm desperate, no doctor will treat me and there are no LLMD's in my area... I think at this point I will need to treat myself.

I have bought other things from them and been satisfied. I have not bought antibiotics, though.

I just bought 100 tablets of 250mg fish amoxicilin from amazon. Is it safe to take and how much at a time?

I've heard it's perfectly healthy and often comes from the same manufacturers.

I already did. There are no LLMD's in Texas. The nearest one is 8 hours away and will not accept my insurance. I have no other option but to treat myself.

Joel, you don't by chance have acne or rosacea do you? Those treated with Ab's - so perhaps could do double duty? I have severe, painful dry eyes. I have a continuous refill for Doxy for 100mg/day for my eyes. I have never taken that much. Just 50 mg/day. I have half a mind (literally) to try them at full LD dose, but don't think I could handle it. Could you PM me with doctors you have researched in Tx?

Yes I do have acne, it comes and goes but sometimes gets bad. What do they normally treat it with? What kind of antibiotics? And will it help with lyme?

What about treatment without antibiotics ?
There are other types of docs, non-MDs, in Texas that may be able to help you.

I think acne is treated with Doxy. Not sure and don't know dose.

I spoke to another member who used Doxy for fish and it seemed to work for him.
As for online, I've used drugdelivery.ca about 3 times and it arrives within about 3 weeks. Some of their stuff is cheap but some is not.
