Can my friend still take garlic to treat MRSA?

Andrew...

My friend has been diagnosed with MRSA. Initially he had infection in his hand and it all started like red bumps. I have read that garlic can cure MRSA. The doctor has drained the infected puss out and has prescribed him antibiotics. Can he still take garlic to treat MRSA?

    Garlic has a compound called Allicin, which is well known to act a natural cure for MRSA. It has been used more as a preventive rather than as a treatment. Though it definitely adds value to the treatment as it doesn’t let the infection to increase while the current treatment is on.
