MOXY

As the leaves change from green to gold so too our bodies are often overcome with infection. Those who know me well are well aware of my physical regime during initial stages of illness (for those who don't know this includes large doses of water, vit c and a and sleep). However this does not apply when infection sets in. When this occurs, essentially the only way to overcome, or the fastest, is to take antibiotics. Now I don't know all the mechanisms of action of antibiotics but I do know that it is the easiest way to health when the nose or throat become infected. Thus the dilemma: I don't have health insurance. So I found some 3 year old amoxicillan from my mission that I just so happened to hold on to, however I only had 14 pills left. So this lasted 4.5 days, but your supposed to take it for 10, well after the symptoms have left to ensure that all bacteria has been killed. So what did I do you may ask? I turned to vet meds. Available without a perscription and at the same cost, they saved me alot of money and pain. I bought fish mox from Amazon dot com and I must say I was more than pleased. I bought a 100 count bottle of 250 mg capsels for 10 dollars and 15 after shipping. They also sell bottles of 100 count 500 mg; 500 mg is required 3 times daily when taking amoxicillian. So the word on the street? Go with vet meds cause dogs use atp just like humans and bacteria is universal.

next you are going to be ordering "fish coke: cocaine for fish" from some online store. as if fish are really sitting around thinking, "I'm sick, i need some antibiotics." i can just see these trout junkies hiding underneath a rock where it's dark in some river, snorting lines of fish coke. really thin bony fish like nicole richie or that olsen twin who was in rehab at sundance. word on the street is keith urban is back in rehab up there too. he probably found that website and ordered fish coke.
