It's difficult to predict until you find out if you have end of round

side effects.

At Moria's web page the range given is 1/8 to 1/2 mg/pound. 1/2 mg

per lb would be 70 mg for you. In HTI Andy says " don't go above 1

mg/lb " (p 238), which would be 140 mg for you. Dosage ranges are

guidelines. The individuals circumstances and side effects must to

taken in to consideration.

In the later stages of chelation there should be no side effects as

the dose is increased.

Is there any reason you are not doing the three days rather than two?

Optimal pulls are usually three days.

I have to say that we have never increased our starting dose and it

has been 18 months. I have not seen a need to increase it as we are

doing well.

Some people do fine with just dosing by weight and leaving it alone.

Others increase.

Dosing by weight is 1/8-1/2 mg per pound of body weight. The 1/2 being

the upper limit.

Others who have increased can give further insight. But it's not

essential, what is more important is following the three day on and

four or more off protocol.

thankyou for your reply, I will try and extend the 2 day cycles of

12.5mg to 3 days on then the rest of the week off. What I am still

confused about is, assuming there are no side effects post the rounds

with 12.5mg dmsa at what point would you consider going up to 25mg?

would this be after the first round? or second? or more?

many thanks jim
