Re: can dmsa be put into milk

[Guest guest]

I mix my daughter's with one of her supplements that is oil (Speak).  I had

been

told by Lee Silsby pharmacy in Cleveland, Ohio that you cannot mix dmsa with a

water-based fluid.  However, that was when we were having the dmsa powder

compounded into a liquid form.  Because it had to last longer in order to be

shipped and it was a months' supply, that may be the reason.

We don't use sippy cups anymore because so much of the supplement ends up

coating the sides of the cup.  If she likes the taste of the coconut

milk, you

could put a little in a syringe with the dmsa and then give it to her that

way.  We mix with the Speak and it ends up being somewhere around 1/2 a

teaspoon.  Also, when we are giving her the dmsa, I always have a treat on hand

to pop in her mouth right afterward.  We use a few Skittles because they are

gulten free and have such a strong flavor that it helps mask the supplement

taste.

I cant seem to get a firm answer on this topic...can you help? Starting DMSA

tomorrow with my 2 y.o. dd. I'm planning on putting DMSA in a small amount of

coconut/almond milk mix in her sippy. I've heard all the other methods-problem

is, she will not take anything off a spoon from me, and milk (coconut/almond) is

all she drinks.

I just want to be sure that its not rendered ineffective if given in a little

milk?

My thought was to give her a very little sippy-cups worth of milk all day long

so she is REALLY THIRSTY for it come time to get more. I'd hate to have her

simply not be thirsty at time for another round.

Anyone dome it this way and seen results?

Thank you!

That's fine. Just need to drink it soon. It won't last more than an hour or so

in that mixture. Lasts longer in an acidid liquid.
