Hi janovr, will Clear Lung clear other bacteria in the lungs as well? How long you have to take to see the benefit? So glad you are free from MAI.

Clear Lungs, like the other non-antibiotic therapies, can help strengthen your lungs, so your body may be able to fight naturally, but in itself does not cure any bacteria of fungus.
Some of us have chosen to stop antibiotics due to side effects and try alternatives, but we must closely monitor our health and work with our doctors.
Also, I work with my primary provider to make sure none of the things I take will interfere with other meds or conditions. Clear Lungs contains a number of traditional Chinese medicine herbs which my doctor told me not to use for more than a few days.
I think from reading your posts that you are new to Mayo Connect and are trying to learn as much as you can. Please take your time, consult your doc, and don't try to start too many new treatments at once, especially if you are taking antibiotics or other prescribed medications. That way, if you have a bad reaction, you can more easily figure out what is causing it.
Can you tell us what infection you have?
