This is puzzling. Oral antibiotics get into the blood stream. The blood circulates through the brain. IV gets the blood levels higher, but the circulation is the same. It is the higher dosage, not something to do with a barrier, which has made the effect. I think....but am open to correction, as always.
Fortunately, though, I have never ever made a mistake.

I know this to be a fact, after 10 months of 800mg a day, of amoxicillen (spelling?). Only after going on IV antibiotics, was I cleared of the flashing lights and stabbing head aches.
