Guest guest Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 I've just begun using DMSO and CS on my cats when the need arises--and with good success. The DMSO I bought at our local Farm Co-op claims 99% pure on the label. Is this adequate labeling when there's no indication of what comprises the 1% impurities and is 99% pure about the best one can get? Thanks, Deborah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 That is what the vast majority of people use. If I were going to use it for IV injection, consume it orally for a long time, or use it in really large amounts topically though I would order from www.jacoblab.com or get a prescription for Rimso, the 50% pharmaceutical grade. I do believe you can find 99.7% for a reasonable price but I have not looked. I use the 99% pure from 1800JEFFERS.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 Hi, Deborah I buy Nature's Gift DMSO from a local health food store (pet section). They have 99.9% pure DMSO. I think I paid about $9.00 for an 8 oz. bottle, undiluted. Their website http://www.lifesvigor.com/prod/2620/ sells this same thing for a lot less ($7.64) than s Lab, yet they say that's who manufactures it , and send you to dmso.org for info! I couldn't find any info about the purity at the sLab site, and they only listed solutions for sale. Their so-called wholesale price for 8 oz. of a 70% solution was $24.95 + !! Something just doesn't add up. Hope this helps. Al D. DMSO purity > I've just begun using DMSO and CS on my cats when the need arises--and > with good success.

Guest guest Posted April 22, 2004 Report Share Posted April 22, 2004 Dr is doing research only these days, not seeing patients. I think the higher prices are to fund his research, but I am not sure. He has lived most of his life on an academic salary in order to make the information public domain and not owned by private companies that he might have gone to work for making three times what he does as an academician. 99.9% pure certainly beats 99%, I will create a Sources folder in the files section of the list and start putting these in there for future reference. Thanks so much! BTW just because it says 99% does not mean it is not 99.9%, they just are not guranteeing that purity. More wiggle room for them and perhaps accounts for the lower cost, no need to check assays to that level of purity.
