abcnews.com article on minocycline

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone,

The following article linking minocycline with RA is a couple of years old, but might be interesting, none the less. Those who have used the treatment have found that the name brand/non-generic Minocin works better and many with long-standing disease have also benefited from the treatment. Also, there were reasons that the early studies only showed modest benefit..... in many cases, people do not notice improvements for many months. Also, many people require the addition of other antibiotics, such as Clindamycin, Zithromax, or Biaxin. So, there are a few points that might need some discussion and I just wanted to bring the article to your attention.
