Guest guest Posted February 8, 2001 Report Share Posted February 8, 2001 , I think it should be okay. I don't think there is any damage: you just have less doses in each chelation cycle, so you won't get as much metal out each time. That is okay. It might take more cycles, but it takes a long time anyway..... and you need to consider everything involved. By the way, since it is the " off " days that you are concerned about, you could also move the whole schedule back even more (--to Wednesday as day 1 on?--) and get it situated so that the OFF days start on Saturday (or whenever you want). best, Moria RESPONDING TO: Message: 5 Date: Wed, 07 Feb 2001 13:15:18 -0000 From: cukierski@... Subject: 2 day vs. 3 day dosing I am new to all of this and have found so much information in reading through these archives. We are in the beginning of chelation with my 3 year old son. He is just on DMSA so far every 4 hours. My question is, can anyone tell me the harm I would be doing to do 2 day cycles vs. the 3 day? We do weekend cycles, but I am finding his behavior at home and school is really affected from Mon.- Wed. on the off cycles. I have cut his dose way back to about 15mg/4 hours and still have the bad off days. I would like to start dosing on Thurs. or Fri. am and do 2 days to have time to recover before Mon. Will I be doing harm or voiding any effects of metal removal by doing this? Thanks for all the good advice I have found here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
