Guest guest Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 How is DMPS dosed? Is it by weight? (I have a severe 13 yo who is appx 80lbs). And then it is given every 8hrs, for how how many days on & then off? I was trying to find something in the files on this but didn't, but could have easily missed it so pls direct me... Also, this son had a rash from it yrs ago & dr took him off it thinking it was allergic reaction. Could it have just been detox? How many get rashes from DMPS, or other chelators? (Doing ALA right now with no issues). Thanks, Michele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then it is given every 8hrs, for how how many days on & then off? ===>Yes, every 8 hours for 3 days, at least. I was trying to find something in the files on this but didn't, but could have easily missed it so pls direct me... Also, this son had a rash from it yrs ago & dr took him off it thinking it was allergic reaction. Could it have just been detox? ====>This is hard to tell, some kids do get a rash when they detox, for others the rash is an allergic reaction to the DMPS, sorry not more help. I do think the rash was more with the td version of DMPS and not the oral. How many get rashes from DMPS, or other chelators? ====>A few mostly from the td version of DMPS and DMSA (Doing ALA right now with no issues).

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 May I add to these questions, what are parents doing when their children get constipation following DMPS suppositories. We have been using them but getting a lot of constipations and rashes on the buttocks. Thanks, Ken **************Start the year off right.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Try this site: http://www.mystillpoint.com/resourcecenter/index.html It has videos on by Dr. Woeller on constipation where he talks about different things you can try to help it. There are many other topics too. You might find it helpful.
