-The use of colloidal silver is contraindicated while on the Marshall Protocol. Colloidal silver may interfere with the body's absorption tetracyclines, and thus could affect absorption of minocycline. It also affects absorption of thyroxine & several other classes of drugs.((Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database. Colloidal silver. Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database Web site. Accessed on December 11, 2006.))+The use of colloidal silver is not approved while on the Marshall Protocol.
