Teri Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 Hi folks, We have just added in Rifampin to Dd 6 medication list. She is PANDAS/Lyme/Bartonella and is also on Azithromycin, Omnicef, & Lamisil. I am starting off slowly as we are also suppose to add in Nystatin 2x per day. My concern is that Dd take .25 of a chewable Melatonin each night. If not, she has a very difficult time falling asleep. We forgot to put that on Dr. Jones' packet - and hope that it is ok to take. She also takes a chewable probiotic daily. I would think it is ok to take but I am having a mini panic about it now that we are heading towards evening. I always forget about the Melatonin bc it has been essential to Dd getting a normal night's sleep. Any words of wisdom is much appreciated. Thx, Teri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayzoo Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 They all sound okay to me. Is the doc checking her liver enzymes? Also, here is a drug interaction checker so you can run each of her meds through it now and in the future . http://www.drugs.com/drug-interactions/melatonin.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
