My question is: Do you recommend restarting the daily dose of 500 mg now, or pulse dosing as you suggested? For the past week I have taken Rosadyn only and am wondering whether to stay with it alone, pulsing as you said, or get back on the once a day Clarithro along with Rosadyn. Any help would be appreciated.
I also noticed in someone else's post that MCT Quercetin has helped them significantly with swelling on the nose and face. I found a website with a supposedly readily bio-available version of this. Does anyone know of a good version of this which can be purchased at Walgreen's or something akin?

Ric,
In medicine you want to achieve a steady blood dose, so take the meds daily to achieve physiological levels, then you can back off and reduce to a pulse dose protocol and see how your body responds.
Rosadyn and clarithromycin should be synergistic in actions and I see no contraindications.
I like the MCT Quercetin or the Optimized Quercetin brands. This ingredient is very hard to absorb, so you must go with a proven brand like the two above.
Also, Quercetin plus bromelain, which is very popular, is not bioavailable, so please do not waste your money.
