Don't confuse "clinical cure" with actual long term cure!
Clinical cure means the drug stops the symptoms.
It does not take into account the relapse rate.
Even flagyl gives a high rate of initial "clinical cure" but the relapse rate is why it's no longer used.

Fair point. Just trying to find some bits of hope as I face another potential infection.
