Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 toadwizard, Do you have a real name we can use? Also, Please sign off with your DX and maybe when you were DX'd and even your state. This info helps us keep us all straight..we get confused enough due to "Oxygen Deprivation" OD..it's a great excuse...better than old age! About the Pirfenidone...I think there are post on the messages about the studies. It seems that the ones from Japan are suspect. I'm not certain of the purpose of the drug either. I just thought I'd give you some response Z fibriotic NSIP/05 Z 64, fibriotic NSIP/o5/PA And “mild” PH/10/07 and Reynaud’s too!! No, NSIP was not self-inflicted…I never smoked!

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Pirfenidone is in Clinical Trials as a treatment for Early Stage IPF. It is not approved therefore as of now in the US. Until results are reviewed and analyzed and a decision made by the FDA, anything more is speculation. > > > Does anybody know what this is supposed to do , how it works if it > > does ?
