Hi Dr. Woeller,
Just got CSA results on a 5 year old with autism. He has low Secretory IgA; and
has dysbiotic flora notable for 4+ citrobacter freundii complex, sensitive to cipro, as well as:
caprylic acid, uva ursi, GSE.
The report also indicates 1+ presence of candida parapsilosis as normal flora.
I was wondering what herbal regimen would you use to zap out the Citrobacter? and for how long? Would you consider Biocidin, which has GSE?
Thanks so much.

Shiva,
GSE or Biocidin should work. Cipro would be overkill and likely just lead to candida. Citrobacter is a commensal bacteria so its not likely going to disappear completely. I would use the botanicals for 4 weeks.
