Guest guest Posted December 30, 2001 Report Share Posted December 30, 2001 Hi Vicki, I'm not a doctor just a regular ol'mom trying to help my son and all our kids.I have heard thru the grapevine that DMG helps control seizures. If you c/o Kirkman Labs web-site they have a page of info explaining about DMG. Also, does anybody on the list know why DMG would possibly liquify in the foil packet if it was well within the date of expiration( a tablet form)?

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2001 Report Share Posted December 31, 2001 Sheldon has been chelating for 16 months while on Depakote (valproic acid) with no problems. I wouldn't expect there to be much of an interaction if you keep chelator dosage low enough other side effects aren't bad.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2002 Report Share Posted January 1, 2002 My son has been taking both Depakote and Topamax while chelating and hasn't had any problems. I began with a very low dose of DMSA and slowly increased. He is currently being weaned off the topamax while chelating and hasn't had any complications. I haven't added ALA yet. > Hi -- we have just started to use the Topamax to controll irregular > electrical activity in 's sleep EEG's (he's had one grand > mal) Are any parents out there chelating (with DMSA)there child > while on this medication?
