RE: XMRV/vaccines/Dr. Goldberg's opinion

[Guest guest]

,

No, he has not changed his mind. I spoke to his office a couple of days ago

regarding the vaccine and he is still recommending it (this was long after

the release of the XMRV study). I think they said no vaccines within three

weeks of each other (and only get one vaccine at a time). I know he would

never want kids vaccinated when sick, either. Does anyone remember how long

he wants them well before a vaccine? Is it 2 or 3 weeks?

Dr. G has a vaccine schedule that he has the kids follow (using the

principles mentioned above) and it seems to work very well... it¹s been

posted on the list before.

Since many of the XMRV researchers have indicated that vaccines may cause

the virus to replicate, has Dr. Goldberg changed his opnion on the

pneumoccocal vaccine & other vaccines? Just wondering if anyone has asked

him about this.

[Guest guest]

Dr. G may be making recommendations on an individual basis, so I think it’s

prudent to check with his office regarding your family. The recommendations

he is making for my son, for example, are different from what others are

reporting on this list.

His office is going to love me if they get bombarded with questions now ;-)

Well, to everyone’s health ~

Hi,

I'm new to this message board. Does Dr. Goldberg or any other doctors out there

recommand any anti viral medications to treat retrovirus such as XMRV for

children? I firmly believe that's the trigger for my child's autism!

Thanks,

When we were speaking to Dr. G during a phone consultation, he said that

the present available antiretroviral drugs are too toxic to give to

children.

We talked about fighting this through working with the children¹s immune

systems (immune modulators) as being another way to treat.

We can all hope that soon there will be drugs soon to specifically target

XMRV in our kids if it turns out to be the culprit.

SO we¹re still waiting for the ³silver bullet².

He does use acyclovir to treat for herpes viruses (but they are not

retroviruses).

Welcome to the group... always glad to add another friend to the group!

Where does Imunovir fit in as a treatment?

Immune Modulator would be my guess ­ I think I remember that from my reading

about it a few months ago.

immunovir help the immune syste, but it is not an immune modulator.

Imunovir is an immune modulator and it is approved in many countries in the

world to treat acute viral infections.

http://www.rivexpharma.com/products_imunovir.html

Imunovir™ (inosine pranobex) is an immunomodulator which has demonstrated an

enhancing effect on the function and number of various cells of the immune

system, particularly T lymphocytes, which are responsible for defending the

body against viral and fungal infections . Imunovir's™ ability to enhance

the functions of various cells within the immune system seems likely to be

accountable for its clinical efficacy. It is our belief that therapy with an

agent capable of enhancing certain aspects of the viral immune response

system is a logical approach to the treatment of disorders associated with

an underlying cellular immune defect. These include viral diseases and

immune deficiency states.

Imunovir™ is also known in different parts of the world as Isoprinosine®,

Viruxan®, Prinosine® and Virimun®. It is approved for a variety of viral

infections resulting from depression of the immune system. A partial list

includes Aolpecia areata, CMV, EBV, Hepatitis acute and non-chirrotic

chronic active B, Influenza, Measles Mumps, Viral conjunctivitis and

subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE). A study has been published in

the 11th volume of the Journal of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome™, entitled

" Clinical <http://www.rivexpharma.com/pdf/Imunovir_study.pdf> Improvement

in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Is Associated With Enhanced Natural Killer

Cell-Mediated Cytotoxicity: The Results of a Pilot Study with

Isoprinosine® " . However, its use in this indication is still considered

investigational. Imunovir™ is approved for the treatment of SSPE in Canada.

Imunovir™ is available in 500 mg tablets and is supplied in bottles of 100

tablets. It is a prescription-only medication in Canada.

Imunovir™ is the trademark of Newport Pharmaceuticals Limited.
