MALARONE???? Need help...

Don't worry. Malarone is not too strong at all. It contains a far lower mg of atovaquone than mepron. It is more of a preventative drug a traveler would take when entering a malaria infested country.

Maria, I answered your other thread at https://www.healingwell.com/community/default.aspx?f=30&m=1411975

I tolerated the malarone well (I think). Used it with atemisinin. It may have helped me but for some reason I started having liver and kidney problems so I had to stop all drugs. I'm not sure if it was all the toxins from the meds or die off that pushed me over the edge. My hope is that you are able to get blood chemistry tests to monitor how you are doing on the meds. Take care.

Considering 2 years ago, I was housebound-I'ld say the malarone helped!  I was in remission a few months ago, but I went off too soon...had a slight relapse-doing well now.

I tested positive for babesiosis a few years ago. Along with abx I was on mepron for about 21 months, then malerone. I had no bad reactions to either of them. Malerone is much milder than mepron. The treatment worked for babesia (I HOPE). It was very difficult to get rid of. I am now on a moderate cowden protocal along with abx to treat any residual parasites.Blessings

Samento which is cats claw (I think) which is also an antiparasitic and antiinflamatory etc, along with parsley and cumanda to start. These are in the form of drops to begin slowly and increase as tolerated.
