Guest guest Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Acyclovir is not the same drug as Valtrex. And while I know that The Neurosensory Center doesn't follow standard DAN, I used DAN as a counter to NIDS because they are the most well known but the idea is still the same with any lower dosing protocol.Valacyclovir is generic for Valtrex. Acyclovir is generic for Zovirax. Zovirax actually needs to be dosed *more* often than Valtrex because the half life is even shorter. Even though a DAN might still dose less often than Dr. G, they generally all agree that you dose more often than Valtrex. Dr. G would dose 5x a day and maybe cut down to 4 way down the road, whereas a DAN is probably going to go up to 3 or 4x a day, depending on how often they dose Valtrex.And here's the thing about the lower dosing. It doesn't mean it isn't going to work to produce gains because you are still lessening the load on the immune system while it's working. You may see great results but there's a much greater risk of viral mutation. My biggest fear with this super low dose that the Neurosensory Center is using is that people will think they can call that giving antivirals a trial. It's not. Odds are pretty good that someone that gets no results from them on antivirals would see fantastic results with different dosing and yet won't do it because they think they've been there and done that. I can't tell you how many people have passed through this list doing exactly that, whether it's with TNC or DAN or whatever.There's a lot involved in looking at antivrals and I don't know who's right. Maybe it's TNC, maybe it's DAN or maybe it's NIDS or maybe it's no one. Maybe the whole concept of stealth viruses is completely bogus. I dunno. I really can only base my opinion on what has worked so well for my son. What I think is improper use doesn't stop it from working for others, as others will certainly attest. In the grand scheme of things, my opinion really doesn't mean squat. :)I know nothing about Amantadine so I can't even begin to comment there. Cheryl ~http://www.gryffins-tail.blogspot.com~~@Gryffins_Tail~ Thanks for your explanation. It is helpful. The NeuroSensory Center doesn't follow standard DAN practices, its protocol is based on Dr. Kendall 's theory. Valtrex, or more commonly acylovir, is dosed once daily. Amantadine once daily as well. > >> > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > Is the basic protocol for this to support the immune system, by using > >> > > antibiotics, antifungals and antivirals?
