Zazul - My husband is

Zazul -

My husband is taking Rifampin 600 mg QD and Roxithromycin 300mg BID which would be reasonably comparable to Rifampin and clarithromycin. 

Since you list Bartonella in addition to CPNi [1], it may well take this combo to be effective against the Bart - at least in my research.

All just my personal opinion...

I'm taking Rif 300mg a day

Submitted by Michèle on Sun, 2008-09-21 06:49.

I'm taking Rif 300mg a day and Clarithromycin 1000mg a day.   Can't manage more Rif without the dreadful heartburn.    The clarithromycin has definately been eating away at persistent infection in my sinuses.... Otherwise I seem to be coping OK.   It has only been a week since I swapped Azi for Clari, so hard to tell what effect it has had until I do a pulse.

If it goes OK I might try adding the other 300mg of Rif.
