Both azithromycin and clarithromycin have excellent activity against the Lyme bug in a petri dish, but they perform no better than doxy in clinical trials. A possible reason is that neither has good penetration into the nervous system. If you have CNS Lyme, it is unlikely that the macrolides or azelides will cure you. (Hate to be negative, but if you've been infected a long time, it is much harder to be cured, period.)
