Since treatment will go on for several months (in conjunction with an oral drug, Flucytosine), it is hard to say whether or not it is effective, yet. Using Abelcet definitely takes some getting used to! It is hard on my body (headaches, nausea, etc.), each daily IV infusion treatment takes 3-4 hours, combined with feeling badly -- and knowing that this will go on for months -- makes for some depression, as well. Although with all that said, I'm grateful for the opportunity to regain my former excellent health. So, I'll follow the regimene and hang in there. Finally, it is very important to watch your kidney and liver functions, as well as your blood pressure. All of mine have been adversely affected, but I am managing them with additional drugs, and they are under control. Published: May 01, 2009 ::
