Minocycline?

[Char]

Hi All,

Has anyone used minocycline for their Pandas child? The antibiotic has an anti-inflammatory in it? It supposed to cross the blood brain barrier and decrease the inflammation. Some child with autism and Fragile x syndrome have used it to, decrease inflammation in the brain. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Thanks Char...

I have not used it, but here are threads where it has been discussed:

I'm not sure if anyone on here has tried it.
