... in response to New Approaches for Fighting Demodex Mites

    This week, I started using the API General Cure powder dissolved in water and a few drops of DMSO then applied to my skin (rather than drinking it, as I had been doing) and have noticed a strong reduction of the symptoms (that remained) as a result. The powder paste doesn't burn and can be left for a long time without side effects, there is not much smell and is not too visually noticeable either. The paste can be left on while you get on with your life. The API General cure contains metronidazole and praziquantel, which is doing the trick—this one of best cures I’ve tried so far.

    I'll add that it's important to keep a good overall hygiene especially with regard to towels, sheets, pillows, hats and clothing. I replaced my towels, pillows and pillowcases, started washing my sheets more often, even bought plastic pillow covers. Plus, avoid infecting others through contact and shared use of items.

      Silk pillowcases. Proven to work. And if metronidazole is working for you, you do not have demidex mites, you gave roseacea treated with anti bacterial

      API is fine, but much cheaper just to use the component ingredients, 500 mg Metronidazole and 150 mg Praziquantel per teaspoon. Better yet, Ivermectin and all is well.
