I’ve been taking these meds daily for two years. My culture was negative in Jan 2023 so I can stop meds in Jan 2024 (protocol for me is one year after converting from MAC positive to negative. Taking a high quality probiotic and taking the antibiotics religiously everyday at same time as directed has helped. I have manages all side effects. Your body will get used to the meds. It takes a few months. Good luck

Hi, your response is very encouraging. I found out yesterday that one med comes in liquid form and the other two are crushable so I think I will at least be able to get them into my system; whether I will be able to tolerate them is a wait and see. Hope you continue to stay healthy.
