Artemesinin with IV cefotaxime
Dear Stephen,
Can I take artemesinin with IV cefotaxime? I have the Dr. Zhang formula and also researched Nutritionals brand. What dose should I do for lyme?

Stephen’s response:
I don’t suggest artemisinin for lyme anymore. And yes, you can take it with cefotaxime. Artemisinin was an early and quite brilliant innovation for treating babesia (Dr. Zhang’s insight). However, as time has gone on, it really is not as effective as many would like, only showing about a 50% effectiveness. Much better is Sida actua which is specific for babesia and bartonella. (Woodlandessence.com carries it).
