also n, I was just watching a show on abx and tick borne illness's, they

too cautioned drugs that inhibit abx's, I think one was antacids? and didn't

name anything else, but did ask to talk and make sure your drs know what you

are taking with their prescribed drugs,

Antibiotic Therapy for Chronic Infections and Inhibiting Drugs

Please consult p. 3-6. Subsets of GWI (~45%), FMS (~70%), CFS (~60%) or RA

(~50%) patients have chronic mycoplasmal infections, and probably other

infections as well. <Snip>

Antibiotic uptake may be inhibited by various drugs, such as anti-depressants

(sertaline or Zoloft, fluoxetine or Prozac, amitriptyline or Elavil,

maprotiline or Ludiomil, desipramine or Norpramin, clomipramine or Anafranil,

nortriptyline or Pamelor, bupropion or Wellbutrin), muscle relaxants

(cyclobenzaprine or Flexeril), opiate agonists, anticonvulsives or analgesics

(oxycodone or Percodan, carbamazepine or Tegretol, acetaminophen/hydrocodone

or Vicodin), narcotics (codeine w/ Penergan, propoxyphene or Darvon,

morphine), antacids, antidiarrheas, metal salts, others. Some of these (some

antibiotics, antidepressants, analgesics, narcotics, etc.) may inhibit immune

responses.
