 While there are several reasons why the class of antibiotics known as the fluoroquinolones are not recommended as a part of the Marshall Protocol, for short-term use, the drugs may offer an option for patients who need a non-MP antibiotic. While there are several reasons why the class of antibiotics known as the fluoroquinolones are not recommended as a part of the Marshall Protocol, for short-term use, the drugs may offer an option for patients who need a non-MP antibiotic.
  
-Because fluoroquinolones do not target intracellular bacteria as do the MP antibiotics, they do not work synergistically with the MP antibiotics.(({{pubmed>long:12183224}})) This allows MP patients to continue with olmesartan (Benicar) and the MP antibiotics. It also gives patients the option to use olmesartan and/or minocycline to control their immunopathological reaction.+Because fluoroquinolones do not target intracellular bacteria as do the MP antibiotics, they do not work synergistically with the MP antibiotics.(({{pmid>long:12183224}})) This allows MP patients to continue with olmesartan (Benicar) and the MP antibiotics.

 +Letter composed by Grateful Survivor for her doctors

 +<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

 +Bactrim, however, perhaps is better avoided by anyone who has a tendency to high potassium [[https://www.medpagetoday.com/primarycare/preventivecare/28976?pop=0&ba=1&xid=tbla-md-pcp|MedPage]] which is not controlled by sodium bicarbonate (see [[home:othertreatments:sodium_bicarbonate|baking soda]])

 I haven't had time to wrk on this. Biaxin and Ceftin are actually preferred over flouroquinolones now that the tendon damage due to flouroquinolones is becoming better documented. Also, I don't like the term "MP antibiotics" but I don't have time to work on this any more until after the FDA presentation, I haven't had time to wrk on this.
