Antibiotics

you sure it was malaria and sure it was cipro? ive never heard of using cipro for plasmodium parasites. ive seen tetracycline back in the day, doxycycline and clindamycin, but not cipro. strange.

what do you mean exactly that moxi if their drug of choice? for everything for for a specific infection?

Yeah quite certain - I had cyclic fevers and it took a week (3 ER trips and one PCP, two lumbar punctures) to get there but it was. It was Cipro because at the time I was on a DHS WMD response team and did not want any Cipro because that and Doxy were our anti-b's for bio agents.

That's also what they were giving the Peace Corps members in country with S/S of Malaria.

The Moxi is in the combat pill packs as part of Tactical Combat Casualty Care. So it is the choice for GSW, blast injury, or other penetrating trauma.
