Guest guest Posted March 26, 2004 Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 Is this your first round? If it is, I would leave it. I did this a time, and it caused problems.... If you get through the round, and its pretty uneventful- (even after the round), then up it. [ ] Chelating NOW -- OK to up ALA? Hello, We are chelating our 8yo son, Adam, 55lbs. Every three hours during day; every four at night. We've only given him two doses so far, at 5pm and 8pm 35mg DMSA and a 50mgALA divided into thirds (around 17mg). He has been absolutely fine. We're thinking about increasing the ALA to 25mg for the rest of the time. Please advise! Many thanks, Janet ======================================================= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 26, 2004 Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 Do you also divide the 35mg of DMSA in 3 doses? I started the first few rounds with 1/6 of body weight. After 40 rounds, I give 1/3 of body weight. It is better to start slowly and see after a few rounds. Increasing doses might create side effects that could prevent you from chelating the following week end. This is just my opinion. Side effects usually appear at the last day of the round and the next day. > Hello, > > We are chelating our 8yo son, Adam, 55lbs. Every three hours during > day; every four at night.
