Guest guest Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Doing a cycle of Virastop and OLE for a couple of weeks and then Valtrex and an antifungal for a couple of weeks and alternating back and forth might be a good plan. - Stan > > Hi, > > My 5 yo son has taken OLE for 2-3years, on and off.

Guest guest Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 a bit confused now ... Am I the only one here with a feeling that it was a 'given truth' never to rotate antivirals? Stan, do you actually know anyoneone who has done this type of thing?? Natasa > > > > Hi, > > > > My 5 yo son has taken OLE for 2-3years, on and off.

Guest guest Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 It was Anita Kugelstadt who had put together a paper under Andy Cutler's direction/ supervision wherein he had recommended having a bunch of different anti-virals, and he had suggested that it wasn't a good idea to rotate. Why, I don't know, but that paper was in the Files on Autism-Mercury. I don't know what the current take on it is.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 If im not mistaken Anita and another mom did most of the legwork and Andy was nice enough to proofread offering further suggestions. Also don't quote me, But it was more so to hit the viruses hard with as many anti virals as you can. Concentrate on a few that may be most effective , while moving to other things that may work. If im not mistaking The rotating may be referring to anti fungal not antiviral Btw Im not in anyway versed in this (as its our next step) so don't trust me. Hopefully Someone like may be able to answer that better as Anita is no longer active on this forum. Kenny v > > > > > > > > Hi, > > > > > > > > My 5 yo son has taken OLE for 2-3years, on and off.
