Pathophysiology of MS

[@ProfessorGiovannoni]

Not sure why we often use metronidazole treat brain abscesses. If you need to treat an anaerobic infection or some amoebic infections you have very few other options.

[@TheEDNC]

Are strong antibiotics (like Cipro and Flagyl) that cross the BBB safe to use in patients with MS?

[@ProfessorGiovannoni]

Yes. No reason not to use them.

[@TheEDNC]

Gavin Giovannoni Thank you for responding, but the answer is “No” according to Pfizer which has just issued an update for Metronidazole (Flagyl) to be contraindicated for those who have or have had a “disease of the brain”. Here is an excerpt of their new global warning: (I’m sure you will find that last sentence to be most interesting.) When you must not take/use Flagyl: Do not take/use Flagyl if you have ever had an allergic reaction to: • Flagyl or any other nitroimidazoles. • any of the ingredients listed at the end of this leaflet. Some symptoms of an allergic reaction include skin rash, itching, shortness of breath or swelling of the face, lips or tongue, which may cause difficulty in swallowing or breathing. Do not take/use Flagyl if: • you have evidence of, or have a history of, a blood disorder. • you have, or have ever had, a disease of the brain, spinal cord or nerves.

Probably has something to do with pros and cons. If the pros outweighs the cons then be it. However its best to consult a neurologist at best

[@TheEDNC]

@@gameofdrones9354 We have, in fact we met with a few on the FDA’s advisory panel that recommended the contraindication. They were very serious about the toxic effects of Metronidazole on brain function of diseased individuals, many became permanent. Unfortunately the doctor was not aware.

Are you in America? Because if you are, you know they found the cure in 1987, don't you? It's weird.
