Is there any downside or upside if DMSA dose reduced?

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone,

We have started my daughter (7 yo, 64lb) with some DMSA (only) rounds and then

added ALA. We have seen some progress, not big. But no regression or major

problems.

Currently, we are giving DMSA 25 mg and ALA 10 mg every 3 hours. Is there any

downside or upside if I reduce DMSA dose to 15 or 20 mg? Is it ok to completely

eliminate DMSA and continue with ALA?

How long should we continue to use DMSA in particular? How to gauge what is

working DMSA or ALA?

Thanks in advance for clearing my confusion.

regards,

Ragha
