Guest guest Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 Hello - I'm new tothi group and have a question. My daughter was Dx about 2 years ago and has just been prescribed the Mito cocktail. I've had difficulty finding a pharmacy that would make it. In the meantime I did get all the vitamins and currently she is taking all the individually tablets. Her cocktail consists of a total of the following, divided over three times a day. - Vitamin C - 1000mg - Q10 - 400 mg - Vitamin E - 600 mg - Lipoic acid - 600 mg - B2 - 200 mg and Carnitor 1500 mg I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has had experience with the Mito cocktail - is the liquid better that all the individually tablets - what response have you seen as a result of taking the cocktail. Thanks. Kathleen J.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 Kathleen, I found a pharmacy in our area that compunds all of the stuff together into one honey thick consistency (lexi can pick any flavor she wants) so that it's only one spoonful of strawberry tasting goo instead of 8 individual capsules that we had to break up, crush, hide, etc. Our results have been mixed....it definately helps when she is in crisis, but on a day to day basis i don't see much difference. hope this helps ruth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 hi kathleen, my daughter was one a mito cocktail for about a year and we did not see any positive or negative results. (so, she is no longer on it) however, just wanted to let you know: all 5 vits were compounded into one liquid and it was flavored. i believe that is much easier than giving all individually. we got it through a local pharmacy and our insurance paid for it all. hope that helps. bethany mom to brennan 7, palmer & anna grace (leighs) 4 > Hello - I'm new tothi group and have a question. > > My daughter was Dx about 2 years ago and has just been prescribed the Mito > cocktail. > I've had difficulty finding a pharmacy that would make it.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 we got it through a local pharmacy and our insurance paid for it all. I wish I knew this ten years ago. This new generation of MITO kids is very lucky (their moms too <grin>)! kj mom to De-Arbra age 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
