How to get APNO?  

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
I had to call my Dr today for some Diflucan. I asked him about APNO and he said he'd never heard of it? Is it only by prescription? I desperately need some!

You can take the mixture (availabale at: http://www.drjacknewman.com/help/Candida-Protocol.asp )

To your doctor and ask him/her to write a prescription for you. Any compounding pharmacy should be able to make it for you as long as they have the ingredients (often worth calling ahead to see).

Are you taking the difulcan for thrush?

Dr. Newman's candida protocol may be worth checking out (at the link above).

APNO is just Dr. Newman's name for it. My pharmacy wanted to charge a crapload to make the compound--only certain pharmacies will even do it. Instead, I had three creams that I just combined on my finger and rubbed together to combat thrush after each feeding: Nystatin, Lamisil, and Betamethasone. In the end, I found that a vinegar spray (1/2 vinegar and 1/2 water did the same thing!
