I don't know about Valtrex because I have not used it, but I use two separate OTC anti-virals, and they both cause major yeast for my kids, so I give them with three separate OTC anti-fungals. I also chelate with ALA, altho my kids were basically finished with chelation before I started anti-viral. Does chelation still cause yeast for your child? If so, the combination of chelation plus anti-virals might cause way too much yeast. > He is not very hungry, a lot of gas, bm's are few & far between > right now... ???

Perhaps your child's yeast is not susceptible to Nystatin, so giving the Nystatin actually made it worse? Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 14, 2004 Report Share Posted June 14, 2004 Thanks for your response What anti-virals & anti-fungals did you use? So are saying the Nstatin could cause yeast for him? Did you use the activated charcoal?

Guest guest Posted June 15, 2004 Report Share Posted June 15, 2004 > Thanks for your response > What anti-virals & anti-fungals did you use? I use Lauricidin and olive leaf extract as anti-virals. This causes yeast, and it needs GSE, oil of oregano, and uva ursi to keep the yeast away. >> So are saying the > Nstatin could cause yeast for him? Nystatin is only effective for certain strains of yeast. So if your child has OTHER strains, then killing the certain strains might allow the OTHER strains to increase. >> Did you use the activated > charcoal? Not personally no. My kids don't have die off symptoms, they just improve. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Currently in > a round now) There is disagreement as to whether charcoal absorbs (reduces effectiveness of) supplements. So I don't know. > > He is also on Valtrex - this seems like so much...Do you think > Anti-virals, yeast meds (Diflucan 2X week) + ALA is OK all at the > same time? I don't know of any reason that you could not use these together, but of course this is a lot to do at once. > > Doen't yeast like B Vit's - So by giving-does this feed it?

ALA did *sometimes* cause gas, for me, especially when I was taking higher doses of ALA. good wishes, Moria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
