I'm just an n of one, but I took Biaxin for exactly one day a few weeks ago,
and got an immediate, intense hissing the likes of which I rarely experience
anymore. Been much more present and voluble since.
I understand that the T from Biaxin is alleged to be transient. I'm still
experiencing an increase.
I know plenty of folks with T who take Biaxin without an increased T problem.
I guess that means that you and your patients with T will just have to evaluate
just how necessary this particular drug is.
