Marethe Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Hi. I am new to this Forum and Whole30. I am taking Apprilon TM on a daily basis for rosacea. I can list all the ingredients here if that would help with my question, but would like to know what to do - do I carry on with this medication? Or do I have to stop it?

missmary Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 The whole30 does not ask you to stop taking any Dr. prescribed medication, regardless of ingredients, so you may continue. That said, it is possible that eventually diet changes will be enough to eliminate the need for this drug. Work with your Dr. to decide if you want to trial discontinuing. Considering that Apprilon is an antibiotic, you may also want to supplement with probiotic foods (sauerkraut, kombucha, etc.) to offset the effect of the antibiotic on your gut bacteria.

Moderators Tom Denham Posted July 31, 2014 Moderators Share Posted July 31, 2014 You can take medications prescribed by a doctor during a Whole30. Without knowing about the medication, I can't say whether it MIGHT have a neutral or negative effect on your experience of the Whole30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
