 +<blockquote>If antibiotic therapy is necessary to treat an acute infection, I strongly request that you NOT prescribe any fluoroquinolone for me, due to concerns over possible adverse effects to tendons. I am already predisposed to tendinitis.
 +Please see the attached Notice for Emergency Personnel from the Marshall Protocol, a supervised study protocol of which I am a study subject. 
 +The following are noted as ok or usually ok in the Marshall Protocol document:
 +  * Cephalosporins especially Claforan
 +  * Biaxin  
 +In addition to the antibiotic recommendations in the Marshall Protocol document, the following antibiotics have been taken without adverse incident by at least some study participants:
 +  * Keflex
 +  * Bactrim
 +  * Clarithromycin
 +  * Nitrofurantoin
 +  * Amoxicillin
 +  * Dicloxacillin
 +  * Vancomycin only in case of extreme need
