Guest guest Posted September 20, 2004 Report Share Posted September 20, 2004 http://www.immunesupport.com/library/showarticle.cfm/ID/4633 A fascinating outgrowth of this decision to market first in foreign countries has been that Zadaxin is already marketed in China and Hong Kong. During the SARS epidemic SciClone has made $15,000,000 in sales, enough to fund research through 2006. This is a huge accomplishment for a biotech firm, most small biotechs are millions of dollars in debt at any given time. Does Zadaxin cure SARS? There is no research to tell, but these sales will be used to push forward the research needed to give us the answers. What does all this have to do with the CFS patient? Zadaxin is indicated in infections that shift the immune system to Th 2 when a Th 1 response is needed. Patients with CFS, fibromyalgia, and Gulf War Illness seem to have an immune system shifted toward Th 2 immunity. I spoke to Dr. Tuthill about this following her lecture. Her comment was that Zadaxin should be useful in any disease where the immune system needs to be shifted toward Th 1 immunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
