marycn and marycyn 2 used at the same time?

In reading some information that came with some M2 I bought, it said "that by alternating drugs, the possibility of developing resistant strains of bacteria is also reduced". Does that mean one day M and the next M2? Can they be used together? I know marycn covers gram positive bacteria, while M2 covers negative gram bacteria. Knowing how hard diagnosis is for desease, can one use both products simoultameously?
Thanks to anyone that responds

Yes, you can, and I have with some postitive result results, however, it is much preferable to get a good diagnois and treat specifically for that diesase rather than haphazardly applying medications. The manufacture that makes the Maracyn medications also makes a broad spectrum antibotic [- & + ] which you might be better trying than doing an overdose with the Maracyns.
Additionally, most marine fish bacterial diseases are best treated with gram negetive, as well as double the dose recommended by the manufacture in the case of the Maracyns. These drugs additionally have vit B additives, which you don't necessarily want to overdose with.

Beth,
thanks for the reply. I was leaning this way because I already have marycn but am treating with marycn 2. It is the last day of treatment, i was wondering if switching would do me any good. any help if appreciated.
Thanks!
