Thanks Marcia, I will check into that. Perhaps it is not available in

Canada as my pharmacist always substitutes generic brands when available.

If I can save some $$$, then you can bet I will be investigating this more

thoroughly!

Thanks for the tip.

Freeman is Canadian so perhaps she can chime in on whether the Valtrex

she recently started her son on is blue or not????

It's blue but I run it under the tap until the dye is removed. Is this

enough or should I try the generic brand? What is the generic version

called? Thank you!

Also, could someone give a definite on whether or not probiotics are allowed

via Dr. G's approach (and what type)? Is a low IgA common? Does this cause

long term damage to gut and does it need specialized medicine to heal?

Thanks!

I bought Brand name Valtrex (made by GSK) in Asia without blue coating. It's

about US$3.10/pill (500 mg) Insurance probably won't cover it . Just to share

the information that Brand name without blue dye is available in Asia.

True - we bought it for years when we lived in Singapore. Its made by GSK in

Australia or UK - same dose but white with blue " Valtrex " logo. Do not

understand why the US makes that horrible blue colour one!

I don't believe low IgA is common but definitely indicates immune

dysfunction. My son's IgA level was extremely low (almost non-existent) 5

months ago. Since beginning the diet and kyodophilus his IgA has

normalized. We still have a few diet infractions so I believe the

kyodophilus played a big part in this. I would consider starting probiotics

immediately. Best wishes, .
