But i do remember that Ebtissam said that the max.dose is regardless of the body weight,which means still 7 and 11 ,if she can provide a reference would be great ,because i couldn't find anything like it. hope it helps Ayham Sbahi From: "dr_hibahaboubi@..." <dr_hibahaboubi@...> Sent: Sunday, 8 April 2012, 13:45Subject: Re: LA EQUATION So for 125kg is it 12 cartridges according to this?
