Thanks

. What about digestive enzymes? Can Valtrex be given at the same

time as those? We are on so many things, I’m just trying to work out a

dosing plan.

Should Valtrex be dosed away from

enzymes as well as probiotics?

I have not seen anything about any adverse

times or combinations to keep away from Valtrex. My son has issues with

enzymes so, I personally don’t have them in at the same time (not yet

anyway). The 3x per day is because of the half life. -

No, I just usually have an antifungal in the same concoction with

the Valtrex, so I’m keeping the probiotic at least 2 hours away from the

antifungal. Sorry for the confusion. -

The first place I would start is with your son's diet.

Runny noses are most commonly associated with fungus in the gut or the immune

system

reacting to specific foods.

That's just my observation.

I would start by looking at your son's diet.

What about giving Calcium, Magnesium and Zinc at the same time as Valtrex? Does anyone know of any problems?

I haven't seen any evidence to support this would be an issue. We were

supplementing

with all three at different times during Valtrex therapy.

,

I would not give calcium and zinc at

the same time considering calcium inhibits the absorption of zinc. Although

either one can be given with Valtrex. -

Ok, if that's true than I've got to switch products! My son gets a "Cal,Mag,Zinc" pina colada flavored liquid supplement that has all three together. I mean that's how it's made! The company is Liqumins and and it has some ionic trace minerals in it as well. This is the first product he will actually take without spitting out! What does everybody think???

I am not aware of calcium blocking zinc. I believe there are many families

taking calcium,

magnesium and zinc at the same time.

I did a google search and in Dr. Jim paper Vitamin and Mineral

Supplements for People with a Autism he states:

" Too much zinc can inhibit calcium absorption and too much calcium

can inhibit zinc absorption. Zinc supplements should be taken

separately from iron supplements, as they interfere with one

another " .

My son Ethan's zinc was super low and copper was high so we were

giving a large amount of zinc 100mgs. After a while Ethan started

pushing on his eyes. I read that pushing on your eyes is a calcium

deficiency. As soon as I started supplementing with calcium he

stopped pushing on his eyes. Now I supplement both but do calcium in

the morning and zinc in the afternoon and night. His latest blood

tests show his copper is down and his zinc is up. Just our

experience. More than likely if you aren't giving extreme doses like

we are and everything is balanced there shouldn't be a problem.

Neither calcium nor zinc are very nice team-players, but this doesn't

mean they HAVE TO be given by themselves, unless you know there's a

deficiency. Sure, in a perfect world, you'd give zinc separate from

everything else, and calcium separate from everything else, but in

reality, that's difficult. You don't have to make sure they absorb

100%, just that *enough* of everything gets in. My own approach is to

give plenty of well-absorbed zinc along with everything else, and then

give extra calcium separately, if his calcium levels are low. If his

zinc looked low, I'd increase how much I'm giving, and if that wasn't

sufficient, I'd add zinc separate from everything else for awhile. I

think it's easy to get a " black or white " / " bad or good " thing going

here, where there are actually lots of shades of gray. Calcium and

zinc will absorb with everything else, just not as well as they would

by themselves.

I've been told not to give calcium with zinc as they compete for absorption.
