cerebrolysin

[Guest guest]

The reply below is from my brother who is a doctor. He has researched

autism quite thoroughly from standard sources. You might like to

consider his warning in the second sentence

Dr Dealler writes:

Cerebrolysin is in fact a mixture of peptides derived from brain that

has been broken down with enzymes. As such if given for too long it is

likely to become antigenic and antibodies and immunity formed against it

(and then God knows what will happen). The injections have potential

problems (it cannot be given orally) but it was tried in Alzheimer's

disease and other damage conditions (stroke etc) for relatively short

periods. The E European paper that you suggest is interesting and they

have obviously tried hard to see the effect...and seem to have found

one. I will put it on the web site but dont be surprised if it does not

take off in any way because of the extreme difficulty in giving the drug

and long term problems.
