Guest guest Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 Hi is this reasonable for a long term plan for DMSA doses? I was trying to figure out what was reasonable for a very slow increase in doses. The untimate dose I was tryign to get to was 50mgs because I'm about 120-140 pounds, depending. And that would be pretty close to the 1/2mg DMSA per pound recommended (plus since I have 25 mg capsules would be easy to do long term - I have a very hard time splittling the capsules.) A. # of DMSA 25mg capsules each dose B. DMSA mgs each dose C. increase in mgs D. # rounds at this dose A. B. C. D. 1/2 12.5 5 2/3 16.7 4.2 5 1 25.0 8.3 5 1 1/3 33.3 8.3 5 1 2/3 41.7 8.3 5 2 50.0 8.3 5+ Total time in years 1.6 So I was just checking 1. that it is not too fast an increase (it seems like it will be a 8mg increase each time approximately.) That this is reasonable! __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
