"Son of 3.5 years old has Lyme; received cefuroxime axetil 250 mg oral suspension for 21 days. It was hard to find a pharmacy that carries this. The pediatrician had to mediate. Our son did a great job taking the medicine, as we used a plastic injection to administer it to him. He did fine with that. However, on the bottle it said to shake well before use. The liquid was too thick for shaking. You had to just wait for the goo to come out of the narrow bottle. When the bottle was 'empty,' there was a thick layer at the bottom and around the sides. Even thicker than the rest. How can we tell if he got the right amount of medicine? Better to put suspension into an open neck jar and stir each time. With Lyme, you're never sure if the medication worked."

"Ceftin is the only antibiotic that cured my Lyme disease after trying others. I have been symptom-free for many years now. I took it for 6 weeks."

"After several rounds of doxycycline, it started to lose its effectiveness. After a week on Ceftin, my symptoms subsided. I'm not cured, but my symptoms have been manageable for the past 2 years."

"Only complaint is that it has a very bitter taste - helpful to take with food. Also recommend taking a good probiotic to avoid getting diarrhea/colitis."
