Re: Immunovir - Isoprinosine

[Guest guest]

I wrote this email in response to Bill Klimas' detailed post last week - for

some reason it wouldn't go through as a reply - so here it is..

Thanks for this Bill.

The drugs name is Isoprinosine. Do a search there is quite a bit published

on it.

We tried it several years ago - ordering it direct from Newport

Pharmaceuticals in Dublin - they shipped direct - we lived in Singapore at

the time. I believe there were issues getting it into the US. It didn't

seem to help our son, although then, Dr G was not using the " pulsed " dosage

that is recommended - which I surmise from Bills post that this is what is

now being done.

Here is the cost in 2004: 3 X 100 tablets (500mg) at EUR158.72 plus shipping

(EUR36.50) FedEx total of EUR195.22.

So for about 200 Euros, we got 3 months supply - quite a bit cheaper than

Famvir at full price - without insurance. If it is helping - it's a bargain!

Here is the contact info that was relevant 5 years ago:

Dr. G referred to it as a " pharmaceutical supplement " -- I have no

idea what that means. Either way, you need a prescription for it and

it's not available in the U.S. because of *political*, not safety,

reasons.

  There is a supplement that comes up when you search for immunovir

(the isoprinosine?) that here in the US is a supplement, but is not

the same thing as the immunovir. I think some may say that it is, but

Dr G (or was it Mrs G?) said it is not the same thing.

When Dr. G first recommended Immunovir to me for , he definitely

told me that it was a " pharmaceutical supplement " . I still don't

know what he meant by that, but I do remember it quite clearly.

:

-The progress was because if inmunovir or for the IGIV?

-Does dr. Goldberg recomend it if a kid is fairly ok in the inmune panel? i mean

my girl has almost a normal inmune panel, but i would like to ask him about

inmunovir.
