Welcome to the MAC group on Connect, @dmarks.
I'm tagging a few members who I believe have taken antibiotics for MAC - the big 3 as they are often referred to here. Please meet @windwalker @tdrell @Paula_MAC2007 @lindam272 @irene5 @ling123 and @heathert. You can read more about theirs and other members on this main discussion thread:

DMarks, how was your first infection treated?

Good morning do you know of anyone on an iv? I was on amikican but that affected my kidneys so I had to stop. Then the doc wanted to try tigecycline but it has a warning in bold letters, can cause death.....so I REALLY decided against that. Now I have a choice of taking clofazimine, along with rifampin, and moxiflocin. The doc wants me to stop taking azithromyxin and start clarithromycin, but when I picked it up from walgreens, the pharmacist said you shouldn't take clarithromycin am moxifloxacin together because it can affect heart rhythm. I feel like giving up and just take the rifampin, moxifloxacin and azithromyxin. I am tolera ring very well. Any thoughts?????
