Guest guest Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 We used it a couple of years ago. We did a months course. Was told to expect alot of behavioural stuff etc. Braced ourselves. Never saw a thing!

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 we're dosing 3 capsules, 3 times a day, 2 hours after eating and one hour before eating, away from supplements and drugs. karenza > > > > Hello! > > > > I tried to find some messages about vamcomycin..I think there were in the past but I couldn't find. > > DrG.recommends this for my son together with charcoal as he says lower the ammonia.I will be happy if you could good or bad reaction to this medication or giving me message number if it is possible please. > > Thanks > > nevin > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 15, 2012 Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 We took vancomycin for 10 weeks for clostridia here, so many behavioural gains from it including perfectly formed stools in the toilet. No die off in the beginning with behaviour only in stools. We took really high doses of probio's, ridiculous amounts actually but it worked here. We were told to be pedantic to avoid regression.
