PANDAS: Antibiotic Cocktail


Recommended Posts

Browsing through the posts seems to indicate success in eradicating "internalization" of strep with a "cocktail" of antibiotics (sometimes coupled with the removal of tonsils). Can anybody confirm this approach? My son has had at least three repeating bouts of strep with PANDAS symptoms. Amoxicillin was prescribed the first two times, and the last time Cefdinir (4 weeks ago). But his symptoms seem to be coming back. I am wondering if a cocktail of Azithromycin and another like Cephalexin has worked.

HI, As you know each kid is different...But I agree that antibiotics may be needed and longer than a week. I think my son being on azithromycin for a month is what really started his improvement. I am not sure if I will put him on again, I'm going to see the Dr in 2 weeks and will see...

Buster has posted some excellent info which is great to have on hand when you go see your Dr!
