Guest guest Posted July 14, 2001 Report Share Posted July 14, 2001 Okay, I emailed them and they gave me their website. It doesn't say anything about the oral DMPS on it, but it has all their contact info there and tells about them. Their email said all I needed was my doctor to fax or call in an RX for it. They didn't mention the price in the email, but I already know that from you anyway. :0) http://www.thefallspharmacy.com/ > > > For those interesting in exploring oral DMPS but have been > > concerned > > > about the cost, a friend clued me in on a pharmacy with > reasonable > > > rates so that chelation costs are very comparable with DMSA. > > > In my neck of the woods, I paid almost $50 PER DOSE.

Guest guest Posted July 27, 2001 Report Share Posted July 27, 2001 Anyone here used oral DMPS as per Andy Cutler for chelation?

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2001 Report Share Posted July 28, 2001 Yes. We are using DMPS q8 with equal amounts of ALA q4 (well, 3 to 4 hrs). My son has been chelating with DMSA for over a year. The addition of the DMPS/ALA lead to his best cycle that I can remember for a very long time. A urine " provacation " test was run with straight DMPS to see what, if anything, we pulled out and we are awating the results. ann > Anyone here used oral DMPS as per Andy Cutler for chelation? > > Lohr > > _________________________________________________________________ > Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 29, 2001 Report Share Posted July 29, 2001 > Ann, > Thank you for your reply. I am glad to hear the possitive effects > the oral DMPS is having. Curiously, why did you change to oral > DMPS after a year of DMSA? -I think we wrote off list, but I have nothing against DMSA at all and I think it was extremely helpful. However, after using it with ALA and chelating for more than a year, my son continues to have significantly (>95th percentile) elevated levels of arsenic. We have gone after the traditional sources (decks, matresses) to no avail. I looked to DMPS as it is supposed to be an excellent arsenic chelator. Time will tell. I am desparately seeking a doctor who will work with me using DMPS. ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 29, 2001 Report Share Posted August 29, 2001 > Andy, What is the dosage for Oral DMPS? 50 mg every 8 hours. If ALA is used with it, the ALA still has to be given more or less every 3 hours, day and night. > We have now past 1 year of treatment. > Josh, age 9, 80 pounds. Connor, age 9, 80 pounds. > Used 50 mg DMSA/25 ALA, 3 hour schedule for the last 6 months. > Thank you > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
