Guest guest Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 I've heard and read that Cipro, Augmentin, Doxycycline ,zithromax or Biaxin are all okay. I have only had to have an antibiotic once since my mold exposure and used zythromiacin Z pack which worked for me. Hope this helps some. Sue **************Nothing says I love you like flowers!

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 My doctor has me on Doxycycline Hyclate 100 mg daily for a skin problem. I think 30 cost about 7.00 generic. I don't know if is of fungal source though. > > Does anyone have a list of antibiotics that are not of fungal origin? > (or vice versa).

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Doctor Tiedlebaum, chronic fatigue doctor, says to take Nystatin with antibiotic to keep Candida from increasing and of course probiotics. I couldn't get Nystatin so taking caprilic acid and probiotics. > > Does anyone have a list of antibiotics that are not of fungal origin? > (or vice versa).

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 I haven't had any trouble w pencilin but Augmentin is two antibiotics in one and I believe one of the two pencilin or amoxycline. I don't know the difference between pencilin and amoxycline but I thought they were the same medicine. I have taken Augmentin without problem but if you have trouble with penicilin, you might want to check the ingredient list on that. I took a z pack about 4-5 years ago and it worked well for me. I don't know what is in it though. I'm taking the Doxyclycline now as I said, but I didn't check the source of it. If Sue said she heard these were all okay, perhaps they have no fungal sources, but I'd check on ingredients if you have trouble with pencilin products. Perhaps amoxycline isn't the same as penicilin but I've always been told amoxycline was a form of pencilin.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 To the best of my knowledge (I am NOT a doctor), All commercially available antibiotics are fungal, in origin. There is an ongoing war, in this world, between bacteria and fungi. We humans are just innocent bystanders, caught in the crossfire between the two. We live in a symbiotic, " marriage-like " relationship with bacteria, which inhabit our body, to the saturation point. I read once, that if there were a way to take the bacteria out of our body, and weigh the bacteria, separately from the other parts of our body, the bacteria would weigh a full 50% of our total body weight. There is also an intense competition among the bacteria, with other bacteria. This is why, sometimes, when an antibiotic kills off all of ONE type of bacteria, the OTHER types of bacteria, naturally present in our body, over-proliferate, and make us sick, in their own right. There have been experiments, for 150 years, in using mineral elements as antibiotics. Just Google " mineral use of antibiotics " , and you can read the current research in this area. But, to the best of my knowledge, there are NO antibiotics, that you can BUY, that are not fungal in origin. Many Urinary Tract Infections (UTI's) can exist, at the same time as a fungal UTI, such as Candida. Fungal UTI's are treated with anti- fungal medicines. Usually the doctors treat the more dangerous of the two types of infection that you may have, and then they treat the less dangerous type of UTI. The bottom line is, that unless you have an allergy to a specific type of fungal-derived antibiotic,you probably won't get an intensification of any " toxic " fungal reaction that you are experiencing. I'm not sure if this safety factor applies to " invasive " fungal gowths inside your body. You have to share your concerns with your doctor, and rely on his educated guess. Don't expect your doctor to acknowledge the reality of any " toxic " mold reaction that you may be living with.
