Guest guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 does state that the group of moms who started this protocol found out by trial and error that at least 2 mg/lb was needed to make a difference. The CMF protocol recommends a minimum of 2.5 mg/lb. You can always go up. You can start lower and see how the child reacts to ginkgo and work up. Or, if you're brave - start with the 2.5 mg/lb. We are up to 2.85 mg/lb and could go up, but I want to talk to our neurologist first. I started low and worked up over a period of 18 months. Right now, is taking 10 mg prozac and we are adjusting to that. This can become a slow process, but it may be safer that way. Marsha > > > > HI > > Im Sheryl and my son Chaim is 3.5 and about 33lbs.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 If you talking about children with a dual diagnosis - DS and Autism, yes. Otherwise, I don't think so. You can always contact Cody. Marsha > > > > > > > > HI > > > > Im Sheryl and my son Chaim is 3.5 and about 33lbs.
