@barbarita I agree about the clofazamine. I have very little if any reaction to it except for the light tan. I didn’t know it was supposed to reduce cavity size.

@notnancy88 @yardsend So Clofazimine has been shown to close cavities, this is good news. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25605283/ MAC likes to hide out in those darn cavities and the medication can't get to it so reducing or obliterating them would be great for any of us struggling with getting to a negative culture.
