Re: taking supplements with AP

[Guest guest]

I was wondering the same thing about the supplements with Minocin and

even Plaquinel, because I have been taking them, even on Minocin days.

In response to your question I am reading the Road Back right now and

he states the halflife of Minocyclin is 2 days which is why they

suggest every other day to take it. I could be wrong on the halflife

part, it may be it takes 2 days for it to break down completely or

what not but I believe this is the basis for it.

I found the note I just posted while looking for the answer to how long

Minocin stays in the body.

I would say after not finding what I was looking fo that 4 hours after you

take Minocin is OK to take a multi with calcium. Even if you take it in less

time some of the minocin will still be absorbed.

hello,

i know i can't have calcium around the time i take mino, and probably

other minerals and herbs too. at the moment i use minimal supplements

on the day i take mino, but i wonder what the time frame is where the

supps don't effec the AP any more.

would it be ok to take a multi mineral/vitamin supplement several hours

after the dose of mino ... say at least 8 hours ? i'm worried the

supps will interfere with the AP. how long does the mino work after

being ingested ? does it keep killing the bugs for a few days, or is it

only a matter of hours ?

thanks for the advice again..
