Did anyone that tried rifampin notice that their anxiety increased quite a bit?.. I've had anxiety with the Lyme but since starting rifampin it's a lot worse now...anyone else?

For me it only gave me anxiety when I took the full dose in the evening...and then it interrupted my sleep and I did have some anxiety.

I now take it only in the morning...or early afternoon.

I have read others' say it increased their anxiety, too.

Yes, I noticed that, but in my case it is not a big increase, I can tolerate it.
