We have discussed a few times the "amazing" effect of short term antibiotic use as reported anecdotally. Penicillin VK has been mentioned. The action seems to be anti-inflammatory.
What puzzles me is why there is no effort to reproduce these short term results as a stepping stone toward a long term use. If we go to our GP tomorrow with a UTI, he won't hesitate a second to whip out his prescription pad and give us a couple of weeks worth. Yet, they don't seem to see any value in doing exactly the same thing to move this onto the board.
