It is always ok to take them more frequently, and like you said, it would be a nightmare trying to keep it straight, dosing them at different times.---------Jackie Thoughts Colette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fine. You can take DMSA every 4 hours *or more often*. Makes perfect sense to take DMSA and ALA on the same schedule. -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way I look at it, if you increase the amount of chelator per day you will also increase the total amount of metals moved per day. Depending on the person, this may or may not be noticeable. From what you've described recently, it sounds like caution is warranted, so reducing the dose when you increase the frequency makes sense. -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
