Re: DMPS chelation (was Re: Steve)

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

I think you would benefit from DMPS. It's certainly worth trying.

It's been years since we did DMPS and I can't remember the dose.

Each transdermal DMPS dose came its own one-off-use tube.

I just used these and I never wrote down the actual dosage the way I did with

other chelators.

Use the files section or ask Andy directly for advice.

Re a doctor - you don't need a good one (although that would be nice) - just one

who is prepared to prescribe DMPS (preferably oral DMPS, although transdermal

without glutathione is OK - don't use intravenous or TD with glutathione)

Best wishes,

Steve

Thanks Steve and Haven.

I combine the DMSA/ALA but the 3 hour protocol means I don't get in rounds

very often - esp. when teaching full time. Sometimes I'll do 10 rounds in

the summer each year.

I'm going to look into the DMPS. Thanks for the info Steve, I'll see what I

can find on the posts. You have an excellent point that it would be a

great way for parents to start without having to do such rigorous dosing when

the child is so sick.

The dose should be 1/8 to 1/2 mg per pound of body weight, but it is often a

good idea to start low and work up to see how you react. You may be dosing

to high? DMPS is every eight hours. DMSA is every four hours round the

clock, and ALA is every three hours around the clock. ALA you can go four

hours just during sleep period. If you add ALA at all, you need to dose

every thing on its half-life, which is three hours (or four just during

sleep time)

We use ALA only with our son. We do oral. We just keep it at three hours

around the clock. By weight he should be around 18 mg, but we started at

12.5, and since we still see some stimming and hyper activity along with

subtle gains, we are staying at this dose for a while.
