QUESTION: I am a veterinarian. Can I buy gallium nitrate crystals from a

manufacturer and resell it to my local horse customers as a cure for navicular

disease?

ANSWER: Such would be a violation of United States law to make veterinary

health or drug claims for it at this time, other than the legal pain and

inflammation type claims we make for it now. If you buy crystalline gallium

nitrate, it will be the hydrated form and you will need to weigh out 128 grams

of the hydrated crystals (NOT 70 grams - as was used for the anhydrous material

that we used in our research trial and sales products) for each 2-week supply

(equivalent to 9.1 grams of the hydrated form per day). However, shipping

crystalline gallium nitrate via either package services (like UPS), the U.S.

Postal Service or freight requires adhering to strict federal and international

laws and regulations related to shipping hazardous substances from multiple

governmental and international transportation agencies, violations of which

could result in a $25,000 federal fine and 10-year imprisonment. The reason for

such sternness is that crystalline gallium nitrate will dissolve aluminum foil,

and theoretically aluminum parts of airplanes used for its transportation if

spilled. I have placed a few crystals of gallium nitrate on aluminum foil and

it does make a hole through it overnight, although the liquid concentrates up to

70% did not have the same effects. These are two important reasons why I do not

market the crystals. Concentrations up to and including 42% gallium nitrate are

not considered hazardous under any national or international transportation rule

or law, and are exempt from rules for crystals internationally. Why they don't

immediately injure skin, I don't know.
